Not going to happen because they are bribed by lobbyists to vote the way the super-rich want them to vote.

"More eligible voters voted for no one than either candidate in 2024." THANK YOU. I keep waiting for the politics channels I follow to acknowledge this and so far you're the first one I've seen.
She missstated that. More eligible voters did not vote at all then voted for any of the Candidates. Trump received 77 million votes, Harris received 75million votes, 3rd parties received a million or few million votes, and 85 million eligible voters did not vote at all.
@@yvonneplant9434 I'm not sure what you're disagreeing with. All I'm saying is I'm glad a political channel is considering non-voters in their analysis of what happened in November. I'm not glad they didn't vote, I'm glad someone is noticing how important it is that they didn't vote.
Amen. It’s not even a case of asking Republicans to vote for Nation over Party. It’s a case of voting for Nation over the interests of one person. Trump.
I agree with everything except the one person part. IMO, it used to be one person. Now with his cabinet picks and partnership with Musk, Trump isn’t even trying to hide that he’s looking out for the interests of all the super rich. It’s the power of the ruling class that he is trying to secure for decades to come.
Thank u!! I needed to hear this!! I'm 65. Worked since age 11. Lied about my age so I could bring in money to help my sickly mother. Now my body is broken and no longer physically able to work.

It’s up to democratic constituents to support and push their representatives to fight Trump and the Republican politicians by calling themselves and writing them.
I Agree! We have stood by while Republicans have rammed bills through, they found loopholes to stop a Supreme Court Justice from being sworn in. I say they need to fight dirty and fight to win
Lets make it tougher for all of them by showing up for every local-state-federal elections going forwards. Voting is the only real way we have to fight back and local and state elections are going to be vital
First election is the special election for house reps that chump picked for his cabinet (happens w/in the next 6 mos). Next up is the midterms in 2026. We have a chance at flipping the house and maybe the senate! We need to go on the offensive! Get ready to vote peeps!…and encourage others to do the same!
We all wish we could vote real change in, but the oligarchy has complete control of our electoral process from the $$$ put into ads, to gerrymandering, to threats to the local election officials, to the courts, to purging voters from registering, to the electoral college. The really only way we can take back our country is to rise up and overthrow the current rigged system. The constitution calls on citizens to do this when our government no longer represents us.
The so called democratic supporters let a good woman down in 24. She is more qualified than this traitor! I doubt if I ever will get over this hurt! We miss you Kamala ❤️
Communicate with your reps and senators, not only with your vote. They are supposed to work FOR you. Tell them what you want often. Tell them when they don't do what you want, often.
It's going to be a rough road for everyone but especially difficult for the MAGAS because they believed the felon. Karma always comes around. Now they have the entire world watching every move they make. As we've already seen that's one insane uneducated show.
Maga will continue to make excuses for everything TFG does, even while they're losing everything. That's what being in a cult is. They've hosed us all.
Trump said "the price of eggs is ridiculous, if I'm elected the prices will come way down". But he also said "We're going to build a wall and Mexico is going to pay for it".
You are awesome! I’ve been following you from the start, and you are so well spoken, and informative and intelligent. A very formidable person needed in these difficult times! Thank you!
You know what people... it's time to leave the MAGA CULT alone! Just let them bask in their victory for awhile,I mean don't give them none of our energy to go back and forth with! If we continue to interact with them they Will never shut up! There's plenty of other things to talk about besides them!
I love the analysis on different subjects that you bring up here in your channel. It's always short, crisp, accurate, and simply hitting the nail on the head. It resonates. It's focused. It isn't confusing. It doesn't drag on forever. Keep it up
I needed to hear this. Thank you. I truly do hope the American people show up to fight for their interests and hold their representatives accountable for not allowing the Republicans to take away our rights and support systems. We have become too comfortable and distracted as a people, and I am personally realizing that that includes me. The takeover of the oligarchy has been insidious. It’s time to get serious about our freedom.

Their cope is so entertaining. All swing states, the popular vote, congress despite Hollywood, MSM and more spewing the Hitler rhetoric, and instead of confessing that they lied, they have a new story…the win was by a small margin….ignoring that Kamala(the flawless candidate) is in debt. Very very entertaining watching all the gymnastics as they try really hard to make it seem like the defeat wasn’t absolute.
They can remove it, just like they do on judge appointments or some other bills. Or even remove it at all. I would support that, simply because no senator can hide behind the filibuster anymore. And tax reform bills are also an exemption in the senate (this includes social security, medicaid and medicare, they will find a way to put it in)
I know I just went food shopping and guess what... Eggs are more expensive now than before the election. Before the election eggs were 3.,00 a dozen and now they are 6.00 a dozen with extra large eggs being 9.00 a dozen...

I know and work with far too many people who are willing to suffer financially to help the billionaires. Especially if it makes people less fortunate than themselves suffer more than they will.
Almost no one goes to Washington DC for the people first. It's themselves first and people second and the fact that over 54% of Congress members are millionaires and many were not when they got there is very telling. And both parties are guilty and the biggest problem with politicians is they are politicians 🤷
Why do billionaires need tax cuts????
To continue being billionaires Lol.
Even with out the tax cuts they are still billionaires.
@@giltrahan they will, but with lesser billions than they would be without tax breaks

Social Security can’t be touched until a 60 vote majority.
Republicans will try to bankrupt it on the tax end. They will set up a system to keep the payments from going into it.
They can remove it, just like they do on judge appointments or some other bills. Or even remove it at all.
I would support that, simply because no senator can hide behind the filibuster anymore.
And tax reform bills are also an exemption in the senate (this includes social security, medicaid and medicare, they will find a way to put it in)
They still need a 60 vote majority in the Senate.
