It's quite literally on the administrations to-do list.

If you're worried about election integrity under the administration, please do volunteer, or work directly for your elections board if you can. We can really use the help, no matter where you are from.

If you have some spare cash, don't be afraid to print out some fact sheets for people to take with them when voting, as long as you don't violate canvassing laws of course.

Don't worry everyone, Chuck Schumer is going to write one of his most strongly worded letters ever.

eyes on the New York mayoral election.

It'll be a prelude to the general election.

And trump is already interfering in that election. and I bet he'll deploy the national guard during the elections. Or straight up jail a candidate.

Like in Germany, Italy, and Spain it will not be the Liberals that fight back. Liberals will bend the knee and beg for forgiveness while Social Democrats will protest until the military massacres them all. But it will be the revolutionaries, the Socialists, the Anarchists, and the Communists that will resist.

Then obviously the communists make the anarchists face the wall

He literally mentioned turning the military on cities earlier during the rambling speech he’s giving right now, in between talking about the quality of paper he likes and complaining about not getting a Nobel prize, because people are apparently shooting firefighters off ladders.

The Time to Move Forward Is Now

Ah, 2021. A time of triumph and jubilation. Democrats coming together and saying "We won last time so now we'll never lose again" and proceeding to write the opposition party off as toothless has-beens. What a magical moment for our country.

Why can't we go back to brunch? I think the real reason is because leftist voters stabbed us all in the back. So we just need to pivot further to the Right if we want to reclaim our beautiful brunch-time again.

leftist voters stabbed us all in the back.

Victory was assured! It is the only explanation!

The Democrats forced Trump to do all this. They're the real bad guys!

[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 9 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

The Democrats forced Trump to do all this.

The Democrats helped Trump do all this.

[–] catsarebadpeople@sh.itjust.works 4 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

Almost as much as protests voters helped Trump do all this. Almost as much as the both sides are the same rhetoric helped Trump do all this.

[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 2 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

protests voters

Which state flipped based on protest voters?

[–] catsarebadpeople@sh.itjust.works 0 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

Do you have a source that shows protest voters didn't have any impact?

[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 3 points 5 hours ago

At least as much evidence as you have that they did.

[–] Distoorted@lemmy.world 9 points 12 hours ago

sheesh, literally the point my dad made yesterday unironically 😔

Totally on board with your premise, they do need to punch up as much as they can. And it looks like they’re trying to do so this round of shutdowns.

Nonetheless, this ultimately comes down to us. All of us. We can’t just sit here behind a computer and meme ourselves out of this disaster. We have to get out in the streets. We have to yell get mad and be angry. We have to hit them where they feel it. We have to organize. Get with upset farmers, get with the military vets whose benefits have been cut, get with the middleclass milquetoast moms who are starting to feel like something isn’t right with their grocery bills.

Each and every individual one of us is a single drop in the ocean, but, if we all move in the same direction, we become a crashing tsunami.

I'm Canadian, you guys should have been doing this since Regan, but better late than never I suppose

Keep it up and y'all are gonna make Hank Johnson bust out his guitar again.

Seems like link to Trump's declaration should have hit my front page before the reaction. link? I could only find month old references, not that "jokes aren't the plan"
