Anyone else incredibly worried about a fascist takeover of the US by Trump and Co? All of the pieces are there for it to happen, and it scares the hell out of me. What would a fascist US do to Canada? I mean, we would be screwed.

Please don't become a fascist dictatorship under the god emperor Trump.

It's easy to argue about the various limits that exist, but most of those seem to be convention, not legal. Trump can just give anyone he wants top secret information with his decree, that includes his children. The guy is going to use his popularity to drive all sorts of totalitarian policies, and at the same time appeal to his base so he gets the support he needs from politicians. Before you know it, everyone is screwed beyond a civil war of some sort.

What does giving secret information to his children have to do with destroying the democratic process?

Was it discussed that Big Lizzy Warren officially endorsed Keith Ellison?

"Keith and I have had the chance to work together many times over the past several years. I’ve watched up close as he has pushed hard to try to hold Wall Street accountable through his work on House Financial Services, and he has consistently exercised bold leadership for the Congressional Progressive Caucus. I admire Keith’s values, his grit, and his dedication to making this country work not just for some of our kids but for all of them. I’m proud to support his candidacy for Chair of the Democratic National Committee."

Is there a way for the DEMS to beat the right wing propaganda machine? Because I legit think the progressive takeover of the Democratic party won't make a difference if they can't sell their ideas to a public that has become impervious to facts.

I think the left needs someone who can rebrand socialism into something more palatable to the American public, like the way Frank Lutz turned robber barons into "job creators".

Mostly I'm just neck deep in an existential crisis. It seems like we can't win because the right employs all of the dirty tricks that we won't AND they have all the guns and tanks.

just mowing us all down...
Democrats don't need rich people. Between online small-level donations and an actually well implemented social media campaign, you can get all the attention you want. The media goes wherever the eyeballs are, and the eyeballs are all pointed at the internet. Just look at how much of cable news coverage of this election was made up of loving Twitter posts.

You don't need rich people. You don't want them. All the millions of dollars you get from them will come at the cost of compromising your values and ultimately your credibility, and a lack of credible opposition is how we got into this mess. gently caress 'em, the Dems should be the the anti rich people party.
