Is the OP advocating a coup? Suspension of the constitution?

100% correct.

Anyone that disagrees with this simply hasn't seen what the country once was, compared to where we are today.

You are not going to win many elections by abandoning your promises of no new wars and lower prices by running on what the Democrats might do. You start a war, sorry , a military action that leads to higher prices, sew chaos in populations in the cities and then claim that the Democrats might be worse.

They might be, but right now the electorate sees you as the worse option

No, we are a convergence of oligarchy(political) and oligopoly(economic) that operates behind the VENEER of a constitutional republic.


If a plurality of the citizenry actually voted on a consistent basis, then sure Constitutional Republic.

But that ain’t reality.

You just don't get it. You don't have a fricking clue. Im certain you have blue hair!
We are past the point of two sides reconciling and agreeing on what's best for this nation. Any peaceful or non "offensive " positions are long gone. Going forward, the only way to make impact is through offending and exerting power, in whatever way that must be manifested.

Patriots outnumber everyone else.

The problem is, they're not yet uncomfortable enough to fight. And also, by the time they're actually uncomfortable enough to fight, it will already be too late to have a chance to win.

But I've no doubt we'll write an ending worthy of retelling in legends.

There aren't enough truly informed people.



Right here^^^^.

Sadly, a majority on the DSA left would claim they are the informed voters of the electorate but they have confused indoctrination and misinformation with being informed.

We have plenty of people who think winning online debates and schooling dumb college kids for youtube is patriotism. I sadly was one of these people for far too long.

Patriotism requires action. Smart patriotism requires a plan and not just voting harder

Maybe you would feel more comfortable if you moved to Boston. I hear there are patriots there as well as lots of fans.

Yeah well identifying this does nothing. Weve known this.

We must ask...what have we been doing to allow our country to be filled with so many illogical and easily indoctrinated people? What have we done to allow these people to acquire so much political power?

What are we currently doing that is actually working to stop it? Was the current path sufficient to actually change the trajectory? What is the bare minimum need to truly turn the tide in the other direction?

Trump simply can't manufacture "patriots". Not his fault. If people don't want to care about this country, what can you do?


There are plenty of patriots out there. Many will say it was patriotism sitting home and not voting for Darlene Graham, Vivek, and Greg Abbott. You are free to disagree

Unless you have proof then STFU. This shtick and you guys complaining claiming cheating even after you get your asses curb stomped is getting old. Other than the defeat in Mississippi you can't credibly claim cheating. Not in Texas, not in NC, not on SC, not in Kansas and not in Iowa. So stop being punk beotch and take your beating and loss like adults.....and really in Mississippi where a dead Republican caught in bed with a live boy / girl shouldn't keep you from winning, Republicans found a way to lose.

You lost because the electorate did not believe in your candidates as a whole......and other than Democrats there were no other real options.

Besides, all of your whining and saying that there was cheating and longing for a "divorce" is not patriotic.
