He spoke this evening on PBS News Hour and what he is positing rings true - people must speak up and must act. Militarization of governance by DRT can kill our democracy.

Different results require a change in leadership for the Dems. Not probable while DRT holds office and seems to get stronger monthly.

Big,Big,Big Money controls him. When they cannot use him or control him due to diminished capacities they will jettison him. They will drop him like a hot potato.

And why billionaires hate social democrats - they are very independent of reliance on $$$$ that fat cats offer and thus won't be bought. It makes the little guy feel empowered which is anathema to the big money guys.

Recent AP Poll shows 80% of 'Independent' voters over 45+ think the country is headed in the wrong direction.

Independents are a growing segment of the voting population and it reflects dissatisfaction with both parties.

But will they show up in 2026 General Elections and do something about it.

American consumers aren't happy campers. Sentiment across the country is close to the lowest it has ever been as rising inflation, rising unemployment, mass firings, a global trade war and now record-breaking government shutdown have combined to make people less than cheery as the holidays approach.

Utilities and their regulators better wise up...voters are becoming very, very sensitive to steeply rising residential electricity rates. Elected officials 'heads will roll', figuratively.

Trump is the dominant political figure of our time. He is also the person whoโ€™s presented himself as the 'master deal maker'. Most people who are not paying close attention to the ins and outs of negotiations say, โ€˜Well, Trumpโ€™s the guy in charge. So if the government isnโ€™t open, itโ€™s his fault.โ€™โ€
