35. My prediction

Mon May 11, 2026, 01:33 AM

Yesterday

As with past issues the Dems will ultimately do nothing. They'll talk a lot, threaten to do something, write a few strongly worded letters, make some noise, but ultimately, they'll do nothing. As a result of the inaction we'll see Trump in for a third and lifetime term.

What should happen.

Actions that are as dirty and lowdown as anything the Republicans come up with and worse. Every Democratically controlled state should gerrymander the fuck out of their states and do everything in their power to disenfranchise every goddamn fucking Republican from the ability to vote. Fuck them and their fucking feelings.
