It’s incredibly important to recognize that Democrats running up the score so high they exceeded the margins of fuckery is not a sign of democratic health. It is a time-limited reprieve to secure the government before we lose it. This was the failure of the Biden Era that cannot be repeated.

America will not be healed by some unifying rhetoric. The country has been made materially worse by people who are openly vindictive, violent, and bigoted. It will be healed when those people are brought low.
