I may or may not get to vote in 2028.

Depends on my health. As some of you know, I had a scary trip to the hospital a couple of weeks ago.

So. I'm going to say something blunt right now. If we, as Democrats, do what we did in 2016 and 2024, we will not get another chance.

DONT **** THIS ONE UP! LEARN FROM OUR PAST MISTAKES. WE WILL NOT SURVIVE ANOTHER LOSS!

And if you just shrug your shoulders at my post, it will be your fault

The last thing you should be worried about is voting. Your virtue signaling is gross.

I'm sure that one way or another, dead or alive, , MM will vote.

rockhead. Please just STFU for once. Your medical issues are not a threat to your ability to vote. Remember, a picture ID will streamline the process.
I hadn't mentioned it, because it isn't relevant to most political discussions. But, I feel the need to qualify myself on your shallow level. I just got home from a month long hospital stay. Unannounced, unexpected, etc. Like yours, none of it any fun.
 But, I'll vote. Take it to the bank! If you don't, you're just trying to up your victim cred. Many will go through similar medical challenges. Most will just endure it and continue on. try that approach.

BTW, you didn't have to get on a waiting list for critical medical attention as happens in your utopian countries. Our system makes more sense to you now, right?

Glad to have you back Ron.

Piling on MM, In 2021 when I had Covid and again last fall when I had pneumonia, I walked into the ER, was seen quickly, and was admitted the same day. I also had, the same days and during my stays, X-rays and CT scans, no wait, multiple times. The delays in "free medical care" countries like Canada and the UK kill some citizens and drive some citizens to go to other countries (e.g. the US) for paid care.

The Democrats' downward spiral could be hard to stop, regardless of 2028.

The internal conflict and backstabbing, whatever fallout there is from the next census, and not having as many built-in electoral advantages as they once did will be hard to overcome.

We can only hope that will keep them out of power for at least 10 years. I think the major disaster their hero mandami turned out to be is an eye opener for a lot of them!
