Ok guys, I’m just struggling so much with grief right now over my smell and the stress of this election shit and everything it’s just not helping. It’s time to say farewell Twitter, May god keep you and find you well. Until we meet again
It's so weird how Democrats are responding to the disappointment of losing the NC Senate seat by being a little sad and hoping to do better next time instead of starting an insane conspiracy theory.
@amccullough105 😂😂😂 you are naming some states where the republicans have an overwhelming majority control of the legislature. Can totally see the Michigan Republican legislature voting on the compact in the same session they gerrymander the state again to keep their lock on power
Abolishing the electoral college requires 2/3 of both chambers and 3/4 of states - when most of those states benefit from it!
Maybe if we stopped pushing “reform” that didn’t require a constitutional amendment we could take ourselves more seriously
If we ended Citizens United...
If we stopped billionaires from buying politicians...
If we moved to the public funding of elections...
If we abolished the electoral college...
The political reality of America would be fundamentally different for the better. Let's get it done.
@amccullough105 Sure you can probably get 200-240ish, just like dems can get 45% in South Carolina every year. At some point you have to believe that republican led states will support something that would limit Republican power
“I haven’t had a chance to speech to Mitch. My expectation is that I will do that in the not too distant future,” Joe Biden says. "The whole Republican Party has been put in a position, with a few notable exceptions, of being mildly intimidated by the sitting president."
Kennedy added that no Senate Republican spoke out against Trump’s right to challenge while he was in the room.
Asked if he thought Trump might be able to overturn the election, Kennedy responded, “That’s why God made judges.”

I mean we knew this was coming all year, but it’s still super weird to be in the midst of this period of time of wondering if democracy is going to die or not
@mattyglesias That’s an easy choice! Let them keep their tax stuff and spend more. This will stoke the economy on both ends and give dems a prayer of taking back the senate in 2022
