That is what happens when you are the first of two major parties in the USA. Are they democratic? We may never know.

It sure sounds like the Republicans are weak and powerless

Same could have been said about conservatives for hundred of years.

The democratic party rising to power in education and media.. is a consequence of conservatives and their failures.

When old doesnt work, people want new.

Simple as that.

Because they are out of rule for like 3 years. When they come back they'll be keep crushing us people inside and outside the US, like the democrats are doing right now, only saying that they are doing something different when in reality their utmost goal is to keep them rich geezers runnin' for some time.

We need a president of the people, instead of a president of the elite that claims he is the president of the people. At this point you know what, socialism isn't too bad of an idea compared to whatever shithole aspects we have now due to the presidents, senators, etc., being dumbasses, or at least not as intelligent as they can be.

Almost every politician is a millionaire. Ehether democrat or republican in a class war it is literally us versus them.

Power has nothing to do with political affiliation and everything to do with money. If you are making a point about power then you are making a point about millionaires at the very least.

My point is that REPUBLICANS complain that DEMOCRATS control all these things

And my point is that they both have zero chance of winning if they don't represent the interests of capital. All the posturing and cultural flame wars are only a distraction from the fact that none of them have our best interests in mind when shaping policy.

Actually our points might dovetail nicely.

Then your point has nothing to do with this thread

If none of them matter....then you are not part of the discussion

Oh they do matter. They have all the money. What doesn't matter is the weird performance art they are acting out. It is entirely beside the real point and I get the feeling that really we agree on that.

Right, you are just exposing which party has more power and more corruption.

Why do you think George Santos chose to be a Republican?

I still think there are dark people behind either the democrats or the republicans, same as a master controlling the puppet.

And how did they get all that power?  Was it tanks and bullets......or was it simply given to them?   And if they gave all this power how can the Republicans ever compete?

Then apparently evil has no competition in the US.


Better get used to it and get on board

Oh not everyone is against the proletariat and of course they will be oppressive to varying degrees. Right now the American left is much to far to the right for my tastes. It has become at best the lesser of two terrible oppressors who act as agents of corporate greed.

I am on board. My plans will keep me afloat after the American people get tired of the empty promises.

I am not much for the term evil and even if evil is the right word I would instead say that among those in power evil has far to little competition.

A similar plan as the 7 million people that left Venezuela after those broken promises festered long enough.
