Tuesday’s results leave Republicans reeling as Democrats consolidated power in governors’ offices, state courts, attorney general seats, and city halls, reshaping political dynamics in three key states ahead of the midterms and the 2028 election. The outcome also represents a major defeat for President Donald Trump, who worked frantically to rally support for Republicans and even issued threats in an attempt to defeat Mamdani.
Hope is dangerous
'Murica has let me down too many times before
And the real problem is the Tangerine Toddler fomenting riots so that he can declare martial law, suspend all elections and declare himself as Supreme Leader
It’s worse than that:
He can legally remove-citizenship from anybody, now, & no court-injunction has any power on him, or his appointees I read ( that was bundled-into his big “beautiful” bill, apparently )
All he has to do is create “justification” for declaring the Democratic party to be terrorists, denaturalize all of 'em, & then there ARE no non-Republican judges left, legal, in the country…
Nobody to appeal to: your accuser is the Republicans, & your judge will also be Republican.
Dig-in, people, hire private-investigators ( or get books on it, & books on journalism, & books on building a legal case, & get competent, pronto, if you can’t afford to hire help ) to get the evidence required against the electorate who’ve been breaking the law ( insider-trading, e.g. ), & GET leverage, before there’s none left…
The assuming victory habit that the Dems have used to “protect” themselves, thus-far ( like how their assuming protected Harris’s victory, while they sat at home, smug ), has cost too-much leverage, thus-far.
Just recently it gave Trump’s buddy Millei another term, in Argentina…
Get pragmatic, dig-in, unearth & earn owning-of, all remaining available leverage, & use it while you can…
They’re literally replicating nazi Germany’s ever-escalating progression, & the nazis using legalism to dismantle rule-of-constitution, & the US’s “night of long knives” will come, sooner-or-later…
it’s only a matter of when, now…

Wish you were wrong, but I agree completely
He can legally remove-citizenship from anybody, now, & no court-injunction has any power on him, or his appointees I read ( that was bundled-into his big “beautiful” bill, apparently )
No, he can’t. Not even Congress can change the Constitution without an amendment. Trump can “try” to make the claim that he can do this, but the courts will stop him.
I get that things seem bleak, but you can blame that on the media for not adequately covering all his losses in court. He has been blocked on almost everything that he’s been trying to do. What he has been able to get away with, is a vastly toned-down version of what he wanted to do…and he seems unwilling to push the envelope too far. Which means he knows he won’t actually get away with it.
Most of his “power”, comes from lying to you about what he can and can’t do. Don’t give him too much credit.
I think you don’t understand that RuleOfLegalism is losing its grip in the US.
& that RuleOfDictator is going to be happening.
As I told people years-ago, once the tippingpoint is crossed, then Trump will be the ONLY “constitution” in the US.
NO checks/balances.
the tippingpoint’s coming in the 2nd-half of 2026.
They won’t tolerate removal-from-power.
& the “elections” ( they’ve apparently already-used de-registration-of-Democrats to tilt elections, against Harris ) will force their hand, then.

You sure are fond of commas and ampersands
Brain-injury-survivor: clarity’s hard to earn, & complex thoughshapes that I’m trying to translate into linear-English, make it frustrating.
Keeping the rendition so at it’s as easy for Down’s syndrome people ( who also are brain-injured, though differently ), & all/any others also brain-injured, in the understanding.
It’s just pragmatism, in a world where successful-communication from me to others isn’t anywhere near the default.

They’re strong to the weak and weak to the strong
And they just showed a lot of weakness. They’re going to fall to infighting for a while… Every MAGA member of Congress just watched their chances of reelection evaporate
The elections weren’t rigged or suspended. No amount of money made a difference. A bajillion endorsements and backroom deals barely moved the needle
