The waitress at breakfast on Friday bragged about winning the "put the xmas tree up" argument with her wife. I asked her how long she's been married. 1.5 years. I said you didn't win anything in the long term. Old fella next to me started laughing. When she walked away, he said, you know it may be different if it is two women arguing.That's called a lie.
I'd believe that when I see it. If not for "progressive" views, what do they have? It's not the economy, middle class, not foreign policy (unless our foreign policy is to be liked). All they have are identity politics and abortion.Complete overhaul of the Dem party if Trump pulls off the EV and popular. Self reflection to the oligarch and dismissing of progressive views.

I had to admit I never considered that.
This is the disconnect :Ha! How is that the “right” thing? The best thing would be to start over but there’s zero chance of that happening. I get you don’t like Trump but Harris offers absolutely nothing. She’s not even entertaining like Biden.
The flawed process is a feature, not a bug. It costs millions of dollars and a lot of manpower to run fraud campaigns. Same with defending them. Both parties accept this because it prevents third party entry.Probably because there are identified legitimate issues with our electoral processes that no one seems interested in resolving.
We deal with the same issues election cycle after election cycle.
We should all ask ourselves "why?"
NO ONE should have faith in this particular "institution." It should be incumbent on our government to show that the process is reliable and accurate. Where it is not, it should be incumbent on our government to be transparent in their efforts to remedy problems and to articulate a plan for eliminating those problems in future elections.
Why do we defend a flawed process when there are solutions to the problem. Once solved, people will only be able to take issue with the results, not the process. Why should the government not fix the problem rather than asking the citizens to accept problematic results?
