Our message for the 2022 election should be vote Republican lose Democracy

January 6th was a training day. We should never vote for republicans unless we want to become like Russia with a mini me putin in Assolini!

Do you want the will of the people or the will of the rich corporations who fund the Republican Party?

but Dems should never use a slogan that starts with "Vote Republican". "Love trumps hate" in 2016 was questionable as well.

We will do better hitting pocket book issues. Most people won't believe the end of democracy until they see it with their own eyes. They can't see it even when it's right in front of them.

And I generally think people rather have a forward, positive message rather than a gloom and doom one.

Better - or the will of Un-American Leaders.

Rich Corporations - the Right Doesn't Care. . . thinking back to Dave Chappell's piece post Trump election -


The naivete of many lower income and middle class white Americans got us Trump.

The middle (which I am) gets worked up on ideas of Democracy. IE - I'm no longer letting Republican wise assess get away with the Federal Republic nonsense. Representative Democracy is where it's at.


How to get us black folks - No taxation without Representation - they want to take your money without letting you have a say in Leadership.

Put it where only the goats can get it.

Democracy or Autocracy is the choice.
American brand democracy or Russian brand autocracy.
Freedom to choose or choose to forced.

Sadly there are too many dumb Americans who can’t define it like they can’t explain what fascism, socialism or communism entails.
