These votes demonstrate that the Democratic Party functions not as an opposition but as an enabler of the Trump administration. Its priority is to ensure the uninterrupted funding of the US military while diverting popular opposition with calls for meaningless cosmetic changes to the administration’s efforts to establish a presidential dictatorship.

    This wouldn’t work, the establishment has too many systems in place that would prevent this. We need to think outside of the system.

      The entire election system prevents third parties. MAGA took over the gop so it can absolutely happen. They aren’t all genius political actors they are fallible, have vulnerabilities and can be out maneuvered by a large enough politically active base.

        Yes, that’s why I said you need to think outside the system. You cannot reform the Democrats, and you cannot reform the US electoral system. Revolution is absolutely mandatory for people to live free.

        The difference is that MAGA isnt a threat to the status quo, if anything they are reinforcing the systems to protect it
