But at least they have to tell the voters roughly what they want to do so the voters know what they are actually voting for. So 'just win the damn elections' should include some indication of their priorities.
It's a trap though. Lots of people criticize candidates for being only anti-Whatever and not caring about local citizens or having a plan for local issues. Although throwing MAGA in jail is the most important thing to help local citizens and issues, IMO. |

High on optimism I see. You forget the only reason musk is back in the loop (along with the rest of the billionaire barons) is to rig the midterm results. Dems aren't getting elected.
If you have 7 people on a bus, 3 vote to drive off a cliff, 2 vote not to drive over a cliff, and 2 don't vote... You're going off a cliff. |

Absolutely, on policy that's important. But announcing investigations before your capable of doing so is likely to just make him throw in another $300 million to keep that from happening. |

Because it's all theatre.
Musk will just move his money back to the DNC. |

Revoke his citizenship, nationalize his shit, throw him in prison for a while, and then deport his ass.
Honestly he should shot and bury his corpse 6 feet under |

If I recall correctly, he came tp the US as an alien and worked illegally originally. Sounds like a reason for stripping citizenship and deportation. |

INVESTIGATE TRUMP
I genuinely feel like I’m going insane when the Dems haven’t made a “we’ll impeach Trump if elected” promise. Not that I’d believe them, but it seems like that should be a talking point. |

Just win the damn elections first and worry about that after. This is basic football, catch the ball first, THEN run. Planning before execution leads to incomplete passes, or interceptions.
I mean...you should also have a plan on what to do when you have the ball, right? Or is every time you catch a football, it's your first time thinking about what you're gonna do next? |

“Hey guys, I’m not going to tell you what I plan to do with power once I get it because Shartgargle says it’s the best option. Vote for me, though.” It’s called having a platform. Saying what you’re gunna do if you win is the whole point of campaigning. |

Investigating people isn't a platform. |

Why are they so obsessed with investigations but never the other parts of the process, like arrests, bringing charges, trials, and sentencing?
To do any of those subsequent steps, you have to have something legal experts call "an actual case." It's hard when your investigations are based on Internet conspiracy theories and sovereign citizen levels of bullshit. |

He should be imprisoned for many reasons, but the cutting off Starshield/Starlink to Ukraine to keep its defensive drones from intercepting Russian jet drones should see him in front of a firing squad. |

Might be a strategy to capture some disgruntled MAGA folks, and not make them rally for their führer |

He's not the target any more because it's been proven that he is completely immune politically and legally. They should do what they never did which is to go after all the co-conspirators first starting with the lowest then keep flipping them until you have everyone. If you eventually get the Don before the clock runs out, that's a bonus. |

I feel like I could bet on Musk paying to kill any investigation brought up by the Dems should they win. |

It is, though. A platform at it’s core is a signal of your values and a general set of promises. You born yesterday or something? |

That was the feckless Biden Administration. They fucked up royally, and got MAGA elected again. The Dems won't be making that mistake again, or they know they'll find themselves in the same hot seat as MAGA. You may not think the Dems are going to follow up, but the MAGAs certainly do. DC criminal defense lawyers are reporting that business is way up, with potential investigative targets bookin...
Sure. And soon after electing the Democrats again, they'll bring universal health care to the US. Sure. EDIT: They'll even close Guantánamo Bay. |
