    Not just a win, but a 32-point shift from the last election in this district. In Alabama.

        They are doubling down to radicalize the base. 2024 won’t be all right, it’ll end in violence

          Likely enough, I’m afraid. For good or ill, many on the left have learned their lesson and armed themselves. If the 2024 election isn’t a blow out for the Democrats, and the Red-hats decide on violence again, it could be a bloodbath.

          Violence that we’ll prosecute as slowly and as reluctantly as possible.

    Don’t underestimate the power of pissed off women.

    Or men who care about their daughters, wives, and mothers. This election is going to be 1980 in reverse.

    The seat was vacant because Republican Rep. David Cole pleaded guilty to voter fraud. Self-projecting assholes.

    Maybe after you guys south of the border get women some bodily autonomy, you can start looking into outlawing slavery!

      I’m not entirely sure why you’re being so heavily down-voted. It’s clear that women in the USA do not have a guaranteed right to govern their own bodies. A constitutional amendment guaranteeing such a right to everyone is very much needed, not only due to the abortion issue, but also situations like the one in Colorado where a man died because the cops told an EMT to inject him with ketamine against his will.

      Secondly, you are absolutely right about slavery. Slavers IS still legal in the USA under the 13th Amendment which says, in part:

      Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction.

        Because I have a gang of secret admirers that think it’s productive to follow me around in different comment sections downvoting normal takes lol.

          Ah, playground bullies flexing the only way they know how. Yes, I’ve been a victim of such shenanigans over the years.

            It’s flattering, in a way
