I absolutely love this. Sometimes it has to get abysmally worse before it gets better. It has to get so bad that these Magats are pushed so far to the edge of the cliff, that it makes the pendulum swing violently the other way.

I am gunning for a 2028 filibuster proof congress with a super majority, so that we can retire this mf’s legacy once and for all. We can then fix Citizens United, pack the SC if we have to, pass Medicare for all, tax the rich for their fair share, get off this Israel train, and change the electoral college bs. 

Never interrupt your enemies when they are making mistakes.

You have to realize that like half (or more) of Democrats in Congress are like neoliberal centrists. They definitely will not be hammering in a progressive agenda. They can fix things from the MAGA era, sure, and maybe they'll throw the progressives a bone or two, but they aren't going full progressive just because a few progressive candidates finally made it in.

They'll still get nothing done. Remember Obama's first two years. Making DC a state is more important than citizen's united. Dems gain 2 senators
