    Yeah, voting en masse for the shit they put up every four years is definitely gonna “force them to present younger candidates.”

    Nah I think making them realize they’ll never win unless they ACTUALLY move left is probably more effective a strategy

      So their too dumb to inact good policies and you think you’ll “make them realize”. Ypi won’t have a democracy left. You force them by protesting while in office, not by whining from your keyboard.

          He says, sitting inside a democracy having never been out of his little “most powerful nation on earth”.

      Big issue is that right now, if the GoP wins, they are going to do everything in their power to make any election always go their way

      Really the proper solution is guillotines, but that’s a bit hard in this day and age, leaving, “Democrats until the GoP is no longer a fascist dictatorial danger” as the only realistic solution

      Which the Dems know and is why they won’t move left - Because they KNOW that, for now, the option is “A beating or getting your limbs gnawed off by a rat”

        It is with that attitude!
