    I think the No Kings protests enabled a lot of people to meet the ones who truly represents them and motivated a lot of people to vote in the midterms. We’ve removed Trump from office before and we can do it again.

    That said, it takes 67 votes to remove a sitting president and that would mean flipping all 20 Republican seats up for reelection: fat chance in hell. We’ll be on damage control until 2028 at a minimum and come 2032 assholes will have already forgotten the harm again.

      A Senate majority is all that’s needed to block Trump’s agenda. Cut off his funding and there’s no pressing need to remove him from office.

        His massive private police force and his destructive project 2025 accomlishments say otherwise. We might be cleaning up this mess for decades even if we win a huge majority in 2026.
