    And worrying is all they’ll ever do about it because they’re cowards unwilling to stand up to him.

    Here’s hoping their worries are justified.

    It’s a tough Senate map this year, so I’m really just hoping we hold on, but a useful Dem majority under Harris would be amazing.

    Texas, I don’t expect you to go blue this year but if you could just send Ted Cruz to curb that would be amazing. The entire country would thank you.

    Trump absolutely stagnated the economy under his term as President. His touch is poisen, he promised 6% growth but delivered just above 0%. Why on earth would it be different this time around?

    If you care about the Economy then keep Trump as far away from it as humanly possible. Preferably in jail.

  5. They really have nothing to worry about. A Democratic Senate is the best thing for America, so it’ll be good

    Oh no…

    Any way, Joe Biden had an amazing speech last night that has really left me feeling hopeful for the future.

    He lost in 2020, made the GOP lose the Senate with his Georgia bullshit, then the rape case, then the tax fraud, the insurance fraud, ad nauseum, ad infinitum.

    But GOP! You know Trump’s reputation is stellar, so keep backing him, he’s sure to win, you guys are all SMART AF.

    Are these the same Republicans who flew past every single off-ramp to flush Trump?

    Let’s Keep Tester in at Montana to make sure they don’t

    Walz/Harris 2024 and Tester 2024!

  10. No no, you’re doing fine. Nothing to worry about. Just carry on as you’re doing.

  11. GOOD. We need the Senate or Harris is not gonna be able to do anything productive. Republicans have shown they are nothing but petulant children who will drag down any bill they can just to hold power. VOTE THEM OUT.

  12. They reap what they sow. They could have pushed him out if they had any spine but no one does, all they do is complain which is pretty much the GOP platform. Bitch and do nothing.

    “But I didn’t know I’d have to reap all of this chaos when I sewed it?!”

    Please be true, Harris needs both houses in Congress to get anything done because Republicans will block their own bills to prevent Democrats from looking good. There is so much shit that they’ve broken that needs to be fixed, especially the Supreme Court. Can’t do that without Congress.

    ETA: I can’t believe I forgot that the Senate is who confirms presidential appointments for both the Judiciary and Executive branches. McConnell will just steal more power by refusing to confirm anyone that isn’t an extremist if Republicans regain control of the Senate. Democrats *must* keep the Senate and retake the House in order to have a remotely functioning government, let alone fix anything.

  15. Fight for Tester and Brown in Montana and Ohio. Fight for Colin Allred in Texas. Fight for Lucas Kunce in Missouri. Fight for whichever Dem wins the 2024 senate race primary in Florida!

    Fight to not only keep the Senate, but to expand it.

    When we fight, we win.

    Republicans are at the point where they basically cannot lose this election. The consequences if they are lose are huge, and of course that extends to trump especially. That makes them more dangerous than ever. They will do anything and everything to try and get trump into the presidency again. They really have nothing to lose, so they will go all out. Shit is going to get dark.

  17. Trump can’t leave the race because as soon as he does, he loses any chance of pardoning himself for his organized crime and illegal/immoral and unethical actions. He’s not running to make America great, he’s running to make America ignore the past crime and turn a blind eye to the crimes he will commit going forward.
    That’s it. He only cares about himself, and only wants to become a dictator like the buddies who have something on him. He’s a useful idiot in power and that’s it.

  18. Good. I certainly hope so.
    No republican belongs in office at any level.
    They turned on the country and should pay the price for it.
