F me I wish Republican majorities weren’t a threat and that they were actually worried about a Democrat super-majority in both Houses. Impeach 2 of the SC and replace with Judges that aren’t corrupt, get those territories (and DC) full Statehood, expressly codify trans, worker, and healthcare rights into the Constitution, and give all the newly blue (in this fantasy of mine) States the opportunity to undo their BS gerrymandering.
The thing is, it really wouldn’t take much to get there.
People’s standards are a lot lower than January 2016. Obviously even with both houses, we’re not gonna get everything.
But if they still hold votes, and Harris uses the bully pulpit to name and shame everyone voting against party platform, the party won’t lose the voters.
We’ll lose the politicians acting against their voters wishes, and replace them with more liberal options in fair and open primaries. Some might stay in office, but we just keep doing it till we get the numbers.
Less then a decade and we’ll have solid supermajorities and actually able to fix shit for good.
It’s literally right there in our reach, we just need Harris to stick her arm out and grab it. She has the potential to be the biggest name in US history books 50 years from now.
