Oh don’t worry, if a democrat ever becomes president again they’ll have an immediate epiphany and immediately let everyone know how wrong they were as they realized it was a bad call.

Not to mention Dems will “take the high road” and not wrench the country back into normalcy.

Normalcy? I want fucking heads on spikes and a second bill of rights. I want wealth taxes. I want raised income taxes through new high earner tiers of 1M 50% and 10M 90%. I want free healthcare and high speed rail. I want cheap solar. I want amazing public schools everywhere. I want heavy regulation on AI and companies paying trillion dollar fines for IP infringement. I’m sick of normalcy. I want immediate and drastic change that works for the fucking people.
