The media needs to ask Republicans why they legislate against the will of the majority of Americans. Their districts added together don’t represent anywhere near a majority of Americans. When are Republicans going to fix what they broke? Why aren’t they held responsible?
Republicans and the media can always rely on neoprogressives to help them promote certain bullshit ideas. Right now, they pushing the narrative that Dems lost seats in the House. So fcuking what? We still have the majority. That’s what matters! That means Dems have the mandate.
The mandate comes from a majority in the House which represents the MAJORITY of the American voters. Period. The Senate is a gerrymandered body governed by minority rule. Democrats have a mandate with the most votes for POTUS ever and the majority of voters for the House. #Truth
I like politicians with knowledge of who has the majority of American voters on their side. #MANDATE

As Democrats, we have to fight multiple battles on different sides of the aisle and hold off the media as well. We have to be better at controlling the narrative which is much harder with such a big tent. As Democrats we welcome varying points of view and never 100% agree on shit
That’s how it always is, Democrats have to work harder. For BP this is normal. We always have to fight from behind which is why we’re the base of the Party. We’re used to struggle while some others aren’t which is why their support is flimsy at times (neoprogressives,55% WW etc).
Still, we have to change the perception. We get played by the media by latching on to their disarray tropes. They love talking about how Dems don’t do this or that perfectly. Left media like TYT gets the base of its money and support by pushing that narrative. It’s a cash cow.

Can we put tests in place to prevent despots and unfit criminals from being allowed to run for POTUS?

It should be a law that taxes are shown. A LAW! That could be done in the states can’t it?

The person must pass the same mental/emotional fitness exams military and police do.
The person must be able to pass a security clearance.

The person must be able to answer pertinent, basic questions related to the Constitution and Federal law.

The POTUS can’t profit from any personal business while in office or be prosecuted afterwards.

Is that too much?
Trump occupying the WH for four years as an unfit, criminal, despot has revealed that the true weakness in our government structure is the Senate.

Through control of the Senate, Republicans have allowed a dimwit, manbaby like Trump lead the country backwards while they looted.

It’s not just that Democrats are held to higher standards, it’s that Republicans are held to no standards at all.

Republicans can lie, cheat and collude with foreign enemies to gain power. They can mismanage government, ruin the economy, cause death and division in the country.
And the media will always say they have a chance of winning, because their voters have no bar for qualifications.

Meanwhile Democrats are criticized by the media for not being.... perfect.

So the narrative becomes; will the Democrats perfectly nail this next test again?
On the other hand, the media allows Republicans to take credit for the economy they inherited from Democrats but then ruined, again.

We have our petty problems about this, or that, or whatever, but,

the main problem with America is tied to ignorance, which is, not knowing shit...

But not knowing shit and then not giving a fcuk is America’s problem. That whole defiant fcuk everybody, I don’t care is America
That willful desire to do the wrong shit is encouraged/taught in this society for some reason.

It’s glorified and patted on the back when somebody does some dummy shit and gets a click.

We gotta give that up; that desire to say fcuk everybody and do the wrong shit anyway.
We all do it to varying degrees...
whether it’s how we talk to each other on Twitter, or how some act in public about wearing a mask 😷

That part of the defiance we all feel is “freedom”. But some use that freedom to be defiant for ignorant reasons,

like not wearing a mask 😷

The problem with “defund the police” is the dumbass, reductionist phrase itself. Defund the police starts a waste of time argument. You can’t just defund police. What takes it place? That’s a non-starter position. What they really mean is Lower Funding of Police for military equ.
They really should be saying “Demilitarize Police” and people wouldn’t disagree with the idea. There must be law enforcement: to all the jackasses who think there shouldn’t be. We just want LE that follows the law and don’t behave like criminals. Reduce Police Budgets ain’t lit😒
The “Accelerationists” as they like to call themselves, wanted Trump to ‘accelerate the demise of the system’. They push GND fairytales and defund the police memes cause they “don’t believe in pragmatism” compromise or incremental change. That’s cute on the surface...

If you look closely,

the loudest people calling for Impeach Now

are by far,

media personalities,

TV hosts,

TV pundits,

Writers/bloggers,

and some blue check marks on Twitter,

Most have one thing in common.

Impeachment hearings give them easy stories to do.

#Lazy
Regular people are doing what they always do,

working, entertaining themselves, trying to have sex, the next drink, a great meal and...

not giving a fuck about the day to day workings of politics.

Political news ain’t real life. @MSNBC @CNN @TYT
The average American represents 160M ppl.

The top cable news broadcasts generate less than 2M viewers per episode.

Hence,

the average person is more likely watching sports, a video game screen, music videos or a Marvel movie.

Those desperate for attention act weird sometimes
