    Yeah, blue could win everything. They could have a supermajority in both chambers of Congress and pack the Supreme court to have an undeniable majority

    And the Democrats would still ensure that no other conservatives see any kind of consequences.

          I think you summed it up. Except there certainly will be prosecutions of a few mid level people; like before. I do remember the trials.

          Some people feel like if one is hopeful enough, the positive energy will rub off nationally.

          However the only way to reform a country is to be realistic

      As I’ve been telling any Democratic Coward/ MAGA Quisling that crosses my path: If that happens, it’s your fault.

      Statements like that give them permission to do nothing, and tells them that you will do nothing if they do nothing. And that’s exactly what they’ll do - Nothing. YOU are a “Strongly Worded Letter Democrat.”

      But the Citizens aren’t doing nothing. Were taking the steps required to make the changes we all want. Right now, progressives are beating incumbents in primaries all over the country. In the Midterms, many of them will win, including several flips from MAGA Red to Progressive Blue. And once they’re in office, there will be changes in leadership, and a new direction.

      Those are steps we need to take, and the first one is already successfully under way. These new Dems are NOT going to sit back while DINO leadership defers to MAGA in everything.

      IF you truly want the Dems to stand up to MAGA, then DEMAND that, not give them permission to fail, again.
