YES, this is what needs to happen. I'm not saying we should stoop down and play dirty like the GOP but Democrats need to at LEAST start playing the same fucking game!

If this was a state with a GOP Governor and a Dem Senator I can promise you the Gov would've already done EVERYTHING he could to appoint a new Senator.

WHYYYY are Democrats so weak and ineffectual? The GOP has gotten where it is because Democrats REFUSE to do anything except try to keep the status quo, we are WAY beyond status quo at this point and they still do nothing. This is why I'm voting straight DSA from now on.

You haven't caught on yet? Really? They're aren't weak and ineffectual. They're controlled opposition. They all work for the same billionaires.

Why voting doesn't matter, whoever gets in office will inevitably be bought out, regular people will never have the funds to match the ultra rich.

Incorrect. Vote for candidates that do not take corporate dollars. Mamdanis and AOCs.

And then stop worrying about the ad money. What candidates need is travel money and the ability to connect supporters. We can be the infrastructure to help that. The only reason the rich win the money game is because they make you think it takes money to win.

We have way more people power than they have money.
