I actually agree with you wholeheartedly and that's what the tankies I think you intended to reply to need to hear.

Oh my bad, I took your comment at face value. I think. I thought you legitimately thought that Democrats winning caused the window to stay center right. Sorry about that!

But yeah, it was quite something to realize that every Republican victory since 2000 has resulted in things being pushed even further right than before. It makes it fairly clear that there's only one way to stop the country from moving right.

It's all good fam, it happens.

I just hope like hell Trump isn't actually re-elected. I fear, though, this time around his goons are gonna be the ones to try to rig the election this time.

I'm hopeful we're safe from that, but it pays to be vigilant. Trump and his ilk aren't holding the necessary offices to rig the election. The federal government is democrat, and Republican losses in 2022 have given Democrats a lot more representation and power in many swing states.
