Democratic politicians supported the proliferation of law enforcement, on public transportation, in schools, even inside homes, a move that has only served to increase the number of people killed by police. Democratic policies are what first empowered the police to become a violent force against the left and in deference to Trump. What Trump understands is that the glory, power, and social currency of the police serve as the backbone for authoritarianism in the United States. It is a militaristic, hyper masculine system which is impervious to change and maddeningly difficult to monitor.
it’s like a new molotov–ribbentrop pact to destroy the dems, just look at who daddy putin is have dinners with
you wouldn’t want to crush lovely Bernie and AOC though would you?
Nope. My honest expectation is that the democratic party would align itself with more populist messaging if the people pulled the party that way. Just like Democrats did back during the first peoples party. They won’t wanna lose voters, and they’re more responsive to the people than Republicans. They’d need a Bernie or AOC to rally behind to do that.
Anything that moves the Overton window is good in my book.
