@jimmurmac.bsky.socialI do not think a blue tsunami is going to stop Trump, he has SCOTUS, and the veto power to stunt policy. The only solution is to overturn every Republican. A 5 seat margin win in Congress is not going to help Democrats, and sets them up to lose in '28, because affordability will not be resolved.
Show PostThe law is skewed in favor of trump, SCOTUS rubber stamps this ... Trump has the ability to resist any kind of oversight Democrats think they're going to bring. Winning Congress will still not help Democrats check Trump. He will just bypass Congress. They would need to also get the Senate.
Show PostThis is capitalist propaganda. Billionaires don't care about employees; they care about profits. Which is why they are far more likely to use cash on hand to buy back stock than hire more employees or give the employees already there a raise. This is just "Trickle Down Economics" in corporate drag.
Show PostMedicare seems like a great place to start, but a lot of the bureaucracy is focused on denying coverage to people who aren't eligible, make a mistake or miss a payment. The point of national healthcare is to make sure people who need care get it. A fresh start might be better.
