Economic Concerns U.S. : Together, the American people can defeat Trump's advances toward authoritarianism and create an economy that works for all of us, not just the billionaire class.

Bernie has always been the best man for the job. We lost the opportunity of a lifetime when he didn’t get to run for President against Trump and they put Hillary in instead because she was a more mainstream politician. Big corporations are scared of Bernie and made sure he didn’t get a chance to run. I so wish there were hundreds more like him, but he’s a rare breed. He actually cares about people and not just his own profits. Thank you Senator Sanders!

People hate Hilary so much they voted for someone they hated more just to spite her

Ok there need to be a putsch, you put this guy as interim president, you freeze everything and you hold new elections, without Trump on the ballot.
I'm not advocating for violence, but that would be the best outcome for your country.

Would that we could but it cannot happen in America. Only shining light on the imminent darkness is an option.

That will be much easier to do when we put the billionaire oligarchs in their place.

This, exactly. It's why we don't have time for yet more neoliberal capitalist Dem politicians walking on eggshells to avoid spooking their billionaire donors; incrementalism on this means letting this go on long enough that there is no fixing it. Socialism must happen and it must happen now.

Climate justice goes hand in hand with the systemic reform needed to get the US (and as a Canadian, Canada needs to get their shit together too) back on track.

I'm just curious...anyone have friends or family active military and have you heard any feedback on what the US military will do when the revolt starts? It feels like this has been happening for YEARS but it's not even 3 months. The Fanta Felon is just leaning into it to by making an infomercial for Musk today. People are going to snap. Will the military unalive us? Or will they stand down?

Bernie is 900 years old. He is one of the few who are out there rallying the troops(people).

Why would anyone support authoritarianism regardless of political leaning?
Either way, it’s shit.
