How did america elect this guy twice? So pathetic.

40 years of crippled public education and propaganda talk radio

It isn't pathetic, it is an engineered strategy that has been ongoing since before any of us were born and it's working because almost no one bothers to do anything but meme about it

I have my doubts that we did it twice. 2024 looks fishy. I'm glad it's finally starting to get talked about

Do you really think it will matter even if they find obvious election fraud?

I think it might get a lot of people who don't like what's happening but accept it to cross over into not accepting it.

I'm not super hopeful that it would matter legislatively or judicially, but I might be the kick in the pants the population needs to go on a general strike, or take other actions.

Sincerely hope you are right, we've gotten so many kicks in the pants so far

I mean, No Kings day was good but we need to do this EVERY DAY

I hope you are right and will put what effort I can towards the goal, I just am not as sure about the outcome as you are.
