They must REALLY think we're not going to win ever again

‘Vance: My life is-- dude, totally transformed. People go to the grocery store for me. I don't have to cook anymore because I have an army of people willing to cook my food. No more TSA lines for me.’

Between this, the Troy Nehls comment, the felon helping himself to countless tax dollars for needlessly incessant vanity projects. I guess the fact the felon hasn’t vetoed the housing bill and will let it become law by not signing it in protest is probably one of the more selfless acts in his behalf, even if he’s letting it become law for all the wrong reasons.

In normal times, voters in this country might’ve physically removed these ghouls office themselves, but we’re not in normal times.

If Tattoo is their nominee in 2028, we cannot assume we’re going to win. We might ride an anti-trump sentiment this year, but that alone won’t win 2028. We can win, we can win big, but we must absolutely nail our 2028 nominee, whomever that is. Because they sure aren’t talking, let alone governing, like they care about struggling Americans.

Nothing can stop the Blue Tsunami.

Vance would be the dream nominee for Dems to run against in 2028.

I’m not worried about Vance as the 2028 nominee.

I am gleefully looking forward to the 2028 republican primaries- they will be the entertainment spectacle of the century!

Their side has poisoned our side so much and many people are brainwashed nothing is worse than a Democrat, even though people who paid attention to politics and reality would know MAGA would never have had any business getting off the ground.

Over the past year, Democrats have over performed in actual elections in places like FL, GA and TX. 2024 Trump +20 districts have swung 15-30 points towards Dems.

In some races, it was mathematically impossible for the Dem to win without Republicans crossing over to vote for the Dem (in other words, for example, 100,000 republicans voted, but the Republican candidate only got 80,000 votes, only 70,000 Democrats voted , and the Dem won by 10,000 votes)
