(#6281) Come November we democrats are going to overwhelm!

      In the spring of 2018 when trump was facing his first midterm elections I was cautiously optimistic that we democrats would take back the momentum that we somehow lost in 2016. I still don't get that election. Be that as it may be it happened and I have moved on. But the harm of it lingers in my soul like an unwanted reminder that even the ridiculous cannot be dismissed. Such is the lesson of expectation, however logical. In this year of 2026 with roughly the same dynamic at play the feeling is similar but different. Back in 2018 there was a desperation of the unthinkable unknown about us and as cautious as we were getting to that election, we were still determined.
     Now it is not only the similar but this time we know the what was then unknowable. The factors are all exposed with only the unwilling to think as obstacles. There is a wave of momentum that is consistent in every respect. Since his first few months of what the fuck is this eye opening unwelcome incredulity, the turn back toward democrats has been abrupt. Those who had no opinion on many things are now engaged against the obviousness of harm happening. Even those who did have opinions on things they thought would be redeemed are now stewing in their illogic. They realized to their and our detriment that they got played. Many are still trying to justify their loyalty even though they cannot do it with logic. But the vast majority of us are not amused nor pleased.
     Which is why so many state and federal races are tipped on their head from the 2024 election. The bitterness of the betrayal by this federal administration is palpable. Democrats are either winning everywhere or overperforming by double digit percentages. Now that the link to tyranny and republicans is evident the mood in our nation is swinging violently toward democrats in resolutely manifested steps as we head to November. Even Europe is experiencing an awakening to democracy that is in it's occurrence, a rehabilitation to we here in the States. Still 6 months to go to that beautiful day in November and the momentum keeps growing toward a rising impenetrable blue wall of a new bright day.
