Democrats won't do a thing. They are in on it. They have been ratcheting towards oligarchy little by little.
They need to be replaced.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Most of them, but there are ones like him who still have integrity. Don't toss them aside.
AOC and Bernie are on tour. Walz might be ok, but he’s still on probation until he shows true spine, not just very good rhetoric.
I would very much like to know of other Federal office holders we can count on. I am serious, not baitin’. Looking to find some hope and figure out who to boost or help.
He's touring now as well https://www.cnn.com/2025/03/20/politics/tim-walz-democratic-party-future-town-hall-tour/index.html
Oh no didn't you get the memo? Democrats are worse and more to blame for what's currently happening than Republicans and you're a dirty liberal if you disagree.
No nuance allowed.

We've all been understanding this even while Walz et al were talking about how they might run in a few years.
Only argument is I see no way trump trusts don jr with even being a figurehead.

The only solace is that the fuckers who are feeding us to the machine are the ones who are going to get minced first.
Spineless fucks.

Could trump be our hoover/Reagan and Walz end up being our Roosevelt/Gore?
History rhymes, but I'm not saying we're gonna see ground breaking changes that bring the federal government back from the brink. Walz just seems like a possible candidate for garnering mass approval across the board and potentially unopposed enough to social programs to maybe implement some.
I find it odd that you equate Roosevelt and Gore? Is it because of his climate work?
Yeah, mostly. I understand they were politically very different. My main lense I was looking through in this case was progressive policy vs regressive policy.
Yeah I gotta say, avenues and windows of action are closing. We're running out of choices if we dont want to live under a dictatorship for the next twenty or more years.
