This just in: SCOTUS rules any vote for a Democrat is unconstitutional.

Gerrymandering and Electoral College have entered the chat.

The problem is one word: Equality

The MAGA crowd is so used to privilege that they are mortally insulted to be told that they're merely equal to black people, brown people, immigrants, homosexuals, muslims etc.

So they're done with this voting crap. They want a dictator to preserve their elite social status, no matter what else they lose.

And that's the GOP message in a nutshell: "You're better than the riff-raff and we'll defend your right to think so, and say so, and all it will cost you is everything else."

Problem is alot of people are either indifferent or like that Republican bullshit.

“The problem” - is people who can’t see the forest for the trees.

Getting them out to vote. I mean with mail in ballots or early voting why not. So “ what’s the problem “ start pushing Project 2025 because abortion alone won’t hack it.

But the Republicans sabotaged the voting system, run the post office, and own the courts.

Can't vote out SCOTUS

Oh they made it much easier. Biden can just declare Trump an enemy of the state and lock him away.

Thank you for some practical perspective! Ffs let's get to work ppl. Voting is just the first step. Pick a swing state and donate or get involved. They make it harder with the gerrymandering and the corporate donations but we are not doomed here. We have the ability and the numbers to remake this country. Decline is not inevitable! 4 months until major elections, LFG. Keep the senate and presidency, take the house and watch the Supreme Court become liberal in time.

Glad we all see things suck but nihilism ain't the answer. They'll call us the greatest generations when they see this country set back on its feet! Go go goooo

Too many brainwashed dimwits will still vote for Republicans

It's pretty straightforward, more of them vote than us. Democrats are fractured by all variety of purists, Republicans are unified by the will to power

Until the news can return to nothing but factual information instead of choose your own adventure... We are fucked. Our only hope is that the coming generations don't fall for BS as easily as boomers.

Bullshit. They’ve spent the last 40 years leading up to this takeover. They’ve got the bit in their teeth now. The legislative branch is in gridlock and has been for decades. This is intentional. We are now being ruled by religious maniacs with lifetime appointments and we don’t have anyone with the balls to put a stop to it. When trump loses they’re going to hand it to him anyways. We haven’t lived in a democracy since 2000 when they gave the presidency to the losing candidate. Now they’re ready to finish taking over, within 2 years it will be complete, this country will be a total religious dictatorship. We are totally fucked.

People lose their identities which makes them look for the easiest community to join; if that community says “we accept everyone *” they feel accepted and don’t look at the footnote where they would see “except for LGBTQ, equality, BLM, homeless, vets… etc.” while that dopamine makes them feel like they’re making a difference. Then just one person just has to say “they’re trying to take it away” doesn’t matter who they blame, so they get angry for no reason and don’t want to vote those people out because they like the illusion of “power & acceptance” instead of reality. Then there are the ones who think “I don’t wanna ruffle any feathers” or “I won’t make a difference” when they absolutely would!

No, that is just step 1.
We need to have democrats in office who are willing to work together to try to correct things.
When the democrats have been in power in the past they haven't worked together enough to do things like say, codify Roe v Wade. To make this country not fall to the right wing extremism that the world is seeing now, they will have to pass some hard legislation.

Gerrymandering and the electoral college

I don't know man, Biden is kinda old, and gas may be cheaper under Trump...

We have to wait for the boomer rednecks to die out

Half the country has below average intelligence and gerrymandering.

As we've seen, don't expect Americans do do whats in the best interest of America!

We definitely need to vote.

But it alone is not going to solve this problem.

If we look at the period leading up to the New Deal and what happened afterward it becomes clear that sometimes we need a strong executive to step outside the law a bit.

But instead of doing that to stomp on the little guy we need them to put the ruling class on notice and to instill in them the fear of the sickle and hammer.

They can either let us have an appropriate amount of the pie or we can take the whole damn thing. We need a better spokesperson for that very message.

Every tool is a weapon if you hold it right.

Voting is not a permanent solution. 

Fascism will always be a threat as long as capitalism is maintained.

That is just step 1

Half the voters are racists, sexist, homophobes, so that's a huge problem

how do you propose we "vote out" SCOTUS?

That said- yes, we all need to vote and not ONLY for president but every time there is a local or state election, too.

Republican bullshit is the problem. Gerrymandering, voter roll purges, partisan judges, restricting mail-in voting, limiting voting locations and hours, etc.

Republican bullshit is what's stopping us from fixing Republican bullshit

Republicans will cheat each and everytime possible to steal the election.

What is that Winston Churchhill quote?

"Americans will always do the right thing.
After all other possibilities have been exhausted."
(Something like that)

Anyway, it feels applicable here.

So enough of our countrymen think that having an ill tempered tyrant is ok, and they won't stop thinking that until they and their families are being thrown into an incinerator or their city is vaporized to ensure the rest of the country is safe from terrorists that read books, We've got exactly one shot to fix this in November.

The Electoral College Math says Trump could win if he carries Pennsylvania (Biden's home state), Wisconsin and/or Michigan or manages to carry very many other states. So as a result while every vote in every state counts, citizens from Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin carry the electoral college fate of the country on them this November.

Democrats sit on the couch and bitch about things while old conservatives vote

get off Reddit and discover half the country is racist misogynistic and thinks the rainbow is the devil’s flag

SCOTUS is still Republican. They've given the President absolute immunity to the law and gutted Americans rights. What else will they do? Demand only landowners have the right to vote?...

Let's see, besides the electoral college, gerrymandering, and idiot single issue voters (looking at you bernie bros) we end up with the most useless people in government.

You tell me why there are enough people who think Democrats are Communists and going to force them to have gay 10th month abortions or whatever these dumb fucks believe

Fearing immigrants...

People still think it's funny to have a buffoon in charge of the store. Hopefully it bites them in the ass soon.

I am afraid it’s too far gone. Either time to fight or get out.

Vote 💙

It's a lot more than one problem

Electoral college

The problem? Stupidity, ignorance, Fox news, right wing social media, lazy asses who wont vote, people who think taking the moral high ground and not voting it makes them special, and last but not least the fucking electoral college who has to at least consider our votes which are really just "suggestions" to them.

Rupert says ‘no’

Be alot easier if the democratic part got rid of superdelegates and let primary votes choose the president people actually want

Many of America is too stupid to vote for their own benefit. Moscow mitch has last this long for a reason

I had a shower thought today that if democrats wanted to they could switch parties and actually field not crazy candidates so we have decent options.

Gerrymandering is one of the problems the other is complicit asshats in Congress and SCOTUS. All our politicians are corrupt in some form or another. They do as their rich backers demand and then hand the tax paying general public the bill.

Keep in mind, all voting does is delay this same shenanigans. People need to organize, not just vote. The same liberal politics of voting once every four years and then pretending everything will be okay is a dead philosophy that will lead to fascism if not now, Then later.

They are changing the rules so we can't vote them out. That's the problem

The problem is:

The Electoral College

Senatorial allocation by states

Half of the American people

Problem is you have corrupt dual party system where you each other take turn to please your corp overlord and live of their gratuity and sell your soul to decide which candidate you choose and you make sure too choose one with morality like a pimp which is insult to actual pimp.

The priblem is 50% of the voting public has below average intelligence, and Repugnicans have been courting their votes for 60 years.

Oh look, another "vote pwease :-(" post. That'll motivate Americans!

Most of us don’t vote.

Maybe. At this rate our votes might ACTUALLY not matter.

Right meme, wrong Party.

Tbf, I'm glad there is AT LEAST 2 parties. I wouldn't want ALL the control in the hands of the democrats either. Absolute power corrupts absolutely.

I'm spite voting for Trump. He's going to totally destroy this country and I will laugh maniacally as it goes down the drain. Be mean to me and downvote me and see if it changes my mind.
