@HPbasketball no

i think this is precisely right. the actual economy (not the stock market) is, in fact, quite bad and people will keep just voting against incumbents until it improves (it will not improve)

[Brian @BrianJNBA]

Truth be told we're probably just going to careen back and forth between one term presidents until the entire thing cracks apart. They can't do anything about the economy because those particular levers were removed from the public sector 70 years ago. Year of the Four Emperors

theyre gonna do all the project 2025 shit and all the people who swung for trump because of vibes are gonna be caught totally flatfooted

This country's politics are so fucking stupid. For the first time ever I'm kinda glad I'm not gonna live forever

[Robyn Pennacchia @RobynElyse]

Abortion ballot measures passed (or in the case of Florida, got well over 50%.

Nebraska gave workers the right to earn paid sick leave.

Missouri voted to raise the minimum wage to $15.

People want left-wing policies and Republican politicians, and ... that's tough.

[Scott Lemieux @LemieuxLGM]

MIssouri voters voting for abortion rights, an increase in the minimum wage, and paid sick leave, and a senator and a president who strongly oppose these things is where we are in a nutshell

@Slotter No one anywhere knows a single thing

[Forrest Walker @DUNOTS]

Ahem.

One more time.

Americans want Democrat policy enacted by republicans.

[Forrest Walker @DUNOTS]

@britrobotista The USA will choose death or it won't. I dunno. Just gotta keep surviving and trying to help the people around us

[Forrest Walker @DUNOTS]

@Slotter I don't think that stuff even matters.

People are having a bad time in one way or another and they just reach out for someone who seems tough.

[Forrest Walker @DUNOTS]

@britrobotista A lot of them had a great time in those years

[Forrest Walker @DUNOTS]

@britrobotista Reality doesn't matter when there is perception to be had

[austin walker @austin_walker]

America is only coherent as an empire built on pillaging the ever shifting periphery, internal and external, which has slowly reduced the breadth of viable ideological positions to various visions of individualism. Trump is just an extremely expressive cultivar of the staple crop
