You know, Americans should take inspiration from the voters of Brazil and Serbia, who decided that the far right was not acceptable to run their governments. Let's not let them down. Vote all the Republicans out of office.

To have one single fucking day without hearing about that moron in the White House for anything would be a relief. Imagine a day without him and you have the joy that will be coming when he's finally gone forever.

If every single town or city had a memorial every single year for all the people they've lost in multiple shootings (such as in Lewiston, Maine, today) we would have had gun control a long time ago. 18 people died and an entire state mourns.

Don't just vote for Democrats: vote blue to make sure Elon Musk and all those billionaires lose 100% of the money they've spent to promote Republicans. This will hurt them far more. True the tax write offs will be massive but their power will be done.
