Another attempt at disenfranchising voters. He's never going to stop trying. Keep fighting and resisting. It looks like he's angling for a 3rd term. www.yahoo.com/news/article...

Trump’s efforts to curb mail-in voting come to the Supreme Court as they falter in Congress
A Supreme Court case examining state deadlines for election ballots sent in the mail is just the tip of the spear in President Donald Trump’s war on mail-in voting.

He doesn't know what the hell he's doing. There were no clearcut plans for this war and that's becoming more obvious. Trump considers "winding down" Iran war without opening Hormuz Strait www.axios.com/2026/03/20/t...

Trump considers "winding down" Iran war without opening Hormuz Strait
This would end the U.S. war effort, but not the global energy crisis the war created.

The Senate map suddenly looks a lot better for Democrats. But still not a slam dunk.

Unfortunately, that's the way it's going to go. We still need to resist as much as possible. Republicans are going to need Dem votes in the House at some point. We need to leverage that power.

I just think it's super sad that Elon Musk is choosing this path while he could have been a philanthropist helping literally millions of people. He has all the money he could ever need. Why is he choosing to disrupt the entire government on a whim? He needs to stay away from US politics.

There's nothing he can do to stop the bleeding. He chose to endorse Trump and that's his own doing. I think X will slowly fade away. I hope so anyway. And yes, it's a cesspool. No going back.

I wish we could do that here in the US but there's not a chance with Republicans in charge. They would not raise the taxes needed to make this work here. Still, I commend Sweden for having such a great working model of how to make healthcare affordable.
