Are we on a river in Egypt??? [View all]

Namely - De Nile.

I saw a quaint OP on another site saying how wonderful it was that MAGA had to spend huge amounts of money to beat Massie.

Somehow, someone somewhere thinks this is still politics as usual.

The bastards just created a billion plus dollar slush fund. How does anyone think money means anything to them?

Add to that the support of the tech bro billionaires, the superpacs and dark money, etc..

Not to mention the billions going to finance his private ICE militia, and now going to January 6ers who have already begun making threats against Democrats.

I am flabbergasted by the Pollyannish outlook I'm seeing.

I'm not saying at all that elected Democrats are not taking action, they definitely are, but I'm not seeing results that have timely impact. Feel free to make me feel better by pointing out examples. I really want to be wrong.

I have reached a point where I can no longer look at political cartoons (except for Tom Tomorrow, who seems to share my outlook), I no longer click on OPs saying how fucked up any of this is, because I now have a voice in my head that whispers "yeah, that'll show 'em."

In short, I believe project 2025 and its figurehead are equipped and prepared to completely disrupt the mid term elections to the point where they don't need to "cancel" them, just overwhelming the process with chaos and repression will have the same effect.

I fervently hope I'm wrong.
