If the GOP shuts down the government, that means 1.3 million servicemembers will go without pay. This after a Republican senator, Tommy Tuberville, has single-handedly put a hold on all top-level military promotions and appointments because he disagrees with the Pentagon’s policy of reimbursing travel expenses for members who must seek abortions out of state. Remind me again why the GOP thinks it’s pro-military.

The public will have had enough, and Dems sweep in '24.

Never underestimate the stupidity of people and the diabolical means those in power will use to manipulate it or silence their voices at the polls.

@zachvat @georgetakei 40% of the electorate still think that Trump is a qualified candidate, so no, Dems will not sweep in '24. They'll be lucky to hold what they have.

This kind of doe-eyed enthusiasm is dangerous magical thinking.

Republicans have controlled the message for the last 50 years. Dems have done nothing to win it back. The media has become a GOP booster club for treating both sides as equal.

24 is going to be trench warfare. Expect to lose if we hope the public just shows up.
