For as long as I've lived - I've never heard a sitting president of the United States consider the loss of *any* city acceptable. And I've lived through some absolute shit presidents.

One month from now Trump will be openly seeking to overturn the Nov 3 results. We all know that is coming. That is why Democratic AGs should announce now that if anyone tries to interfere in their election-including Trump-they will prosecute under state law. Trump can't pardon state crimes! - Dean O

NEW EPISODE: When asked earlier this year if he regretted not seizing voting machines and ballots after the 2020 election, Donald Trump said, "Well, I should have." Now he's telling us exactly what he plans to do in this year's midterms, and this time, we should believe him. youtu.be/MBLiMjSXros

What Timothy Snyder says here cannot be over-emphasized. Democrats must not only win, but immediately – announcing on 4 Nov. and beginning on 3 Jan., they *must* legislate and execute anti-corruption – even if Trump vetos them. We must become the party of anti-corruption and social mobility.

Time for a few words on who Elon musk is: Filmmaker Alex Gibney talks about his new documentary on him, and how he, like Trump, built a reputation on things he didn't create. As Gibney points out, Musk was an early investor in Tesla, not its founder.

Bust up big corporations and tackle Wall Street’s greed. Get big money out of politics. Strengthen unions and boost wages. Pass Medicare for all, paid leave, universal childcare, and so much more... This is the agenda Democrats need to fight for. It's not enough to simply be anti-Trump.

I can't believe I donated to his campaign! In my defense, I did it primarily bc I am a fan of his wife, Gisele, a co-founder and advocate of free food stores in Pittsburgh. That Gisele has been notably quiet about her husband's support of all things Trump, should not, I think, imply her approval.

High prices and the cost of living are top issues for the voters who will decide the midterm elections. And women are more worried than men about paying for necessities in every category, from groceries and housing to healthcare and retirement, according to new polling from The 19th and YouGov.

Paychecks aren’t going as far. More Americans say they trust Democrats to help.
People, especially women, are stressed about paying for everything, from groceries and housing to healthcare and retirement.
