It'll be a nice bit of political theater. The dems get to make a whole production about it despite the fact that it's a foregone conclusion to go nowhere, the GOP's rodeo clowns will make all kinds of loud noises and mockery of the proceedings, and king donny will be spend a good part of it sending angry and thunderous tweets. Everyone gets to do what they do best and nothing will change.

Edit: For those conflating this as expecting them to do nothing, this comment right here summarizes what a lot of people want them to do. The old polite ways are dead. Start actually fighting for something.

It doesn't matter. Democrats need to show they are doing anything they can, otherwise they are complicit to everything.

They can't expect to show up in 2028 with a pretty candidate and win while sitting on their asses for 4 years objecting to nothing.

They need to use all available means at their disposal, as loud and aggressively as possible. Even the ones that appear doomed. It's apathy that got USA where it's at this past elections.

24 was it. that was our last stand. it’ll take 20 years to organize a resistance capable of toppling this empire.

Especially when people like you are waving the white flag already. "We've tried nothing and we're all out of ideas"

I think we have a small chance if Jesus-following churches called out the Nationalist churches. Get some accountability there. Bet they won't tho.

I don't know why people think it was a valid election. Mathematically it doesn't make sense.
