(12,335 posts)which means "no competitors for Stalin while Stalin lives," they likely have plans for keeping the game going or simply leaving chaos behind as cover. It must fit in with Trump, the last glue holding Magats together. So it is and will be large scale voter suppression, media enhanced "divisions", ignorancem large scale gerrymandering and every other dirty trick in the book, massive money (and not just for campaigns), establishing a kinder gentler Trumpism in some board-like gaggle of power brokers and wannabes. Since all these corrupt elements are as stupid and unpopular as humanly possible that leaves the sanity charism ball in the Dems court.
Every time the Democratic party passively hopes for a default reset giving them logical victories they can get disappointed big time by not hitting the default corrupt advantages that will be in place still, especially vote suppression. The extreme measures of cancelling elections, etc. are the current bugaboos that leave that main advantage untouched. Also hampered by the rich donor part of the party, good-willed or not. If the GOP crumbles- as it should!- all the corruption should be given a quick, consistent and merciless full court press and get rid of ALL Trump second term appointees and damage while trumpeting as much progressive public service as possible.
And protect the Vote!
