‘I Approve This Message’: Kamala Harris Instantly Uses Trump’s Own Words Against Him - SDF Chatter

Man, I’m so happy with the way this is going so far. I sure hope she wins the election.
I hope Republicans get absolutely crushed to the point that it becomes clear catering to the extremists and conspiracy theorists is not tenable. Then they have 4 years to try to rebuild from the ashes and try to present a reasonable platform instead of something insane.
I hope they are crushed, learn nothing and double down on it by running with Trump again, this time fully campaigning from prison.

I prefer the Republicans offer a reasonable alternative so that Democrats can actually be held accountable. Currently Democrats can engage in insider trading, pass laws that help their stocks, continue to give weapons to war criminals, and you still have to come out in droves to vote for them or the country becomes a Dictatorship.

If Republicans are forced to rebuild and offer someone that isn’t going to run the country and everyone’s freedoms into the ground, (or better yet completely crash and burn allowing an actual leftist party the chance to be the 2nd party) then Democrats can actually be held accountable if they pass shitty laws.

I prefer the Republicans offer a reasonable alternative so that Democrats can actually be held accountable.

What color is the sky in your world?

“I would prefer a functioning democracy”

“What fantasy world are you living in?”

Americans are full on drinking the Kool-aid aren’t they?

Republicans being reasonable? Reasonable Republicans holding Democrats responsible? For what?!?!

You’re down k hole and experiencing a fever dream.

And it was Flavor-Ade. Get yer shit straight.

What I said was I would prefer if Republicans were a somewhat reasonable option, that wouldn’t be taking away people’s rights or diving straight in fascism, so that voters could hold Democrats responsible.

Basically, wouldn’t it be nice if you didn’t have to vote for a Democrat if they didn’t follow through on their promises or engaged in unethical behaviour?

Short answer: yes. I’d prefer we move away from a two party system and embrace something like ranked choice or STAR to promote more voices at the table, but that takes away power from both Dems and Repubs, so it ain’t happening anytime soon.
That sounds great too. The person I was originally replying to said they hoped Trump lost and continued to be the candidate for the next couple of elections, which would not lead to a more stable or functioning democracy. (No third party has a chance when there’s a risk of actual fascism if the Republican’s win.)
