They don't need to win. They just need the GOP to lose.

So, my question is this... how is team red going to blow it and how last minute will it be?

i think theyre forgeted unless they do something popular like legalizing marijuana, some kind of student debt relief (which they seem to be completely opposed to at this point), or cutting stimulus checks (obviously out of the question now). the stimulus checks completely dried up after biden came into office, people blame him for the covid recession, and he's not the "return to normal" people wanted because he's visibly disintegrating. i assume the economy will stay pretty bad up until the election so that probably seals the deal

Yes, but the GOP just needs to come out and say that they eat babies or something and it's over.

The UK Conservative party did something similar a few years back. They had a vote of no confidence or something, and they had an off-season election, and right after they did that they put out a list of party plans and they were straight up asinine and NOBODY wanted them.

3 mass shootings in like a second right after COVID memoryholes and barely a month later we have record breaking anti-gun votes. Real subtle ATF

Shout out to my mom who thinks because of Roe v Wade being overturned the right to bear arms is going out the window in retaliation.

lmfao talking with parents about politics is incredibly disheartening.

Upset Roe V Wade got overturned, love that NYC got told to get bent and carrying is a constitutional right

 Roe V. Wade OVERTURNED

the american pro-life position could be a little more convincing if these same people don’t spend their lives damaging the financial security of single and working mothers, childcare costs, state funded in-hospital childbirth, free or affordable school lunches, universal welfare and nutritious food stamp access for children, or having less maternity (and paternity!) leave than the taliban

[Drydess]

I’ve never in my life bothered to consider it because it’s ridiculously funny how little a person’s life matters as soon as they exit the womb, according to the religious extremist american pro-life politicians and constituents

[Drydess]

it’s also a good time to mention how the victims of communism foundation counts free abortions in the ussr since 1920, in cuba since 1965, and in korea since 1950 as state-sanctioned murders
