I spent decades working for democracy against autocracy in developing countries. I know this playbook. Resist. Early, often, and intensely. Resist.

All of you Trump-voting retirees know the GOP is coming for your Social Security and Medicare, right?

@ElieNYC They are wrong

[Alex Cole @acnewsitics]

And again, Democrats fix the economy and hand it over to Republicans to destroy. Each and every time.

@susmurphy Don’t forget the church pushing an amoral man as some kind if second coming

[Dana Goldberg @DGComedy]

No matter what happens, it saddens me deeply that rape, felonies, trying to overthrow our democracy, misogyny, racism and transphobia are somehow not deal breaks for 10’s of millions of Americans.

@RadioFreeTom No matter the results of today's election, the American media is still a failed institution. It created don trump from whole. It promoted trump as if he had ideas or beliefs that in anyway that would help America. It was all a lie, and the American media did it to us.

@Mollyploofkins I miss those satisfying old lever machines where you could just give the top lever a hard yank and flip them all the way down. Needed one of those this year. And pretty much forever now because there is no R vote ever in my future

@techgirl1908 i can’t help but side-eye my own cohort these days, but i am very hopeful this time. They miscalculated that older WW wouldn’t care about reproductive issues, but we REMEMBER how effed up it used to be and are having none of that again

[JeanR 🗯 @P_JeanR]

@SkylerforNY Absolutely. I am still pissed about “Fritz snd Tits”. We do not forget those lessons

@MDPspucky @mistergeezy BTDT. Priest raving against Pelosi & Reid. Kid used ‘inside barn whisper’ to ask why we were leaving. I answered at same volume “because today is about politics not God.”

Important thread not only about Iowa but also about understanding real life results of abortion bans, what actually works and what doesn’t.

[Keith Ellison @keithellison]

So if like me, you care about the people of Gaza—and the right to protest about Gaza—you don’t want Trump in power. But THIS IS THE CRITICAL PART: if you sit this election out or vote for a third party that will not win, you are letting Trump get one vote closer to power.

[Garry Kasparov @Kasparov63]

America doesn’t need to be torn down like a bankrupt casino. Democracy is never perfect, but it’s the best match for the human spirit we’ve found. Harris will continue the great experiment; Trump wants to end it. My article: https://t.co/5vsBRLGJfC
