And no, a regular Trump presidency would not be better for progressives because we have potentially 2 seats on the Supreme Court coming up, but a Trump Presidency where Dems control everything? That'd be great. He'd be totally impotent for 4 years, if he managed to not get removed, and then in 2024 a Dem would have the advantage, and (hopefully) a progressive Dem even moreso. It'd be great for progressives, but it also isn't going to happen. If Trump wins, he likely gets to pick another 2 seats on the Supreme Court. Even if a Progressive Dem wins in 2024, it's too late. The damage is done. How is that reality so hard to understand? Dreaming of that scenario is pointless because the Dems won't win the house and senate while Trump wins the general. --- Epic Seven IGN ZeroThe13th <cite>RaidenGarai posted [p:935903096] in Politics C...
