First of all, **** the GOP.

But what's with the Democrats playing by the rules - Al Franken resigns for a freakin PHOTO from 20 years ago? Meanwhile Donald Trump wins the Presidency on a campaign of grabbing women by the genitals. Are you kidding me?

I'm so sick of my side playing "by the rules". Cuomo should not resign. Nobody should. It's time for us to say **** the rules and stack the courts.

He resigned because 9 credible women accused him of sexual harassment. This is crucial because of what's happening right now with Gaetz. This is the moment that "going high when they go low" pays off.

It is also, coincidentally exactly why Cuomo should resign.

Choice in this country is already fucked enough. I don't need the ballot to be two different flavors of Trump.

But yeah stack the courts.

It sounds to me like you're on my side. It's time to say **** it to "going high" when they go low.

It's time to stack the courts, allow no one to resign, and consolidate all power/gerrymander all we can. Release yellow journalism on Governors we don't like to try and pressure them into resigning or not seeking re-election.

Agree?

I disagree very strongly.

For one, Al Franken didn't resign over a photo--he resigned because of the sexual harassment that he committed against a real person that happened to be captured by a photo.

For two, while using his authority as Governor, Cuomo's actions directly got a bunch of people killed and then he blatantly lied about it and tried to downplay the consequences.

Cool.

A GOP Governor in New York would be telling people not to wear masks, and getting them killed by the millions.

Don't "same thing both sides" me on Cuomo.

As I said, **** the system and **** it all. Time to fight back.

And the other 1/2 are saying "Both parties are the same".

You think 1/6 Insurrection was bad? Tom Cotton just said he wants to incarcerate the entire country.

And y'all are going to sit here and scold me for being radicalized. I WANT ****ING FDR-STYLE CHANGE.

**** this "changing the name Aunt Jemima" fake change bull****

If a SMART Donald Trump wins on the GOP side - Democracy is done.

SMART Donald Trump

I'ma stop you right here.

You can go all the way back to Hitler and look at not just his government but the fascist governments around the world inspired by him including the ones that still exist today and you will still be starved for intelligence.

Fascism isn't just stupid. The people who run it are also stupid. All of them. Not just Trump. They will always be stupid because competency threatens a fascists ability to maintain power.

Or to quote Donald Trump himself, "I love the poorly educated."

So you agree with me: A really good politician, an actual trained one - not a conman reality TV star - will destroy this country.

Only 4 years of Trump almost did. He turned 70 million Americans into a brainwashed cult. Just imagine the next one.

If Cuomo resigns, he will almost certainly be replaced by a democrat. Probably one that isn't such a fucking creep.

It's honestly disgusting that you want him to remain in power.

I'm not for telling parents what to do with their own money. I'm sorry, but no.

Stacking the courts so that the country actually changes = yes
Telling parents what to do = no
Gerrymandering so that states get rid of the GOP virus = yes

Get it?
