      has the minimum wage gone up?

      did workers get more rights?

      when did we get that universal healthcare?

      neither the Democrats nor the Republicans support workers

        The min wage last went up under Dems. Yes, worker rights have expanded under Dems. Yes, Dems kneecapped themselves by taking a public option out of the ACA but at least they got super close, unlike the GOP, whose best claim to policy change on healthcare was that dramatic moment when McCain stopped them from repealing the ACA.

        One party wants granny to die from pre-existing conditions, the other isn’t quite left enough for you.

      Seriously though, he doesn’t look well. I was suspecting Vance will try to replace him, but that might even happen before inauguration.

        I kinda wanna see trump die before the electoral votes are cast. Like idgaf about trump, but I just wanna see what happens, are they gonna vote vance in the EC vote, or are they gonna vote for the dead trump, and if vance, whos the new VP. Like this would be unprecedented and it’d be interesting to see how the process works.

          whos the new VP.

          Isn’t it obvious? It’s gonna be Gaetz. He has nothing better to do, after all.
