To be fair: Democrats also did absolutely nothing to get their SCOTUS nominee confirmed when Obama was president, though since we saw them exploit the Roe leak to make a cool $80,000,000, we kinda know where their priorities were anyway.

After four years of Trump, I’m not buying any excuses that the president is powerless.

No, it won’t. That is how change has been sold for the last 40 years, and people are not only being paid significantly less, housing is quickly becoming too scarce for everyone to obtain too.

If meaningful change happens, it will because people revolted.

Pressure must be applied from many sources for real change to occur.

Yet without a real, existential threat, nothing meaningful is going to change. Hell, we just saw Roe go up in smoke while Democrats had the presidency AND Congress. Their response to this massive loss of liberty was to fundraise.

Nothing is going to change this trajectory except the Marsha P. Johnson school of brick throwing.
