    They’ll speak up about it as soon as any Dems in power try to spend a single fucking cent on poor people.

    At this point it’s on the Democratic Party for never calling them out on the obvious. The GOP is so openly corrupt, disgusting and straight up retarded but the Dems continue to normalize it by not saying jack shit about any of it. They would rather focus all their ire and attention on “the radical left” in their own party.

      I should also say that as much if not more blame belongs to our media environment. But even then the Dems never bother to try and utilize our pro-corpo/fascist media to their own ends like smart politicians should. So it still ends up on them imo

          This isn’t answering the question but imagine someone like Jon steward running. I’m not saying he’s my guy or anything but he would know how to work the media and us to get his message out there.

          The right figured it out. It’s not even about just the media too. Left leaning places like Reddit have the rights message plastered on the front page 247 via snarky tweet replies not realizing that all publicity is good publicity. Someone on the left needs to figure out how to amply a left wings vision onto every platform every hour of every single day.

      The reason the Dems normalize it is because they are also openly corrupt and disgusting… they’re just not quite as retarded.

    I’m sure it’s still the fault of a dem pres or maybe something about bathrooms.

    $40T with an inflated but somehow still decreasing credit rating?

    That’s generational debt for a while…

    The band-aid solution is war, but the US has never won one…ever. So unless other countries want to help out—obvioiusly not, as the world has disaccharided itself strongly—the only hope is exercising the constitution for long-term recovery.

    They won’t. But I don’t think the constitution was ever anything people would do anything about, just a comfy blanket from then until now.

      They famously won one about 80 years ago. That said, they won in Serbia in the 90s too.

      They seem to consistently win wars when they are allied to most of the world.
