We already lost it forever thanks to Biden and Merrick Garland.
Watch this. If the election is held and Dems win. Who will make Trump leave office when he says, "No".?
Will Todd blanche and the DOJ that's been gutted remove him? Will Kash Patel and the FBI that's been gutted remove him? Will Tom Homan and the secret police force better equipped than the Marines (that the Democrats support with 85% funding) remove him? Will Pete Hegseth and the military thats been gutted remove him? Will our intelligence agencies who are linked to Mossad remove him?
Ok, so you've given up. Sit down and shut up, please, so the rest of us can try saving our democracy.
We don't need fatalist doomers like you telling us there's no hope, because there's always hope if people are willing to stand up. You obviously aren't, so sit down and shut up.
Who said I gave up? Biden and Garland did that. Continuing to play their games is giving up
And that means give up to you?
Lost forever means it is lost and cannot be regained. So yes, defeated and given up is what it sounds like. There is nothing in that semtemce to indicate you're willing to fight because the loss is done and it's gone forever.
Means we need something new. Or something at all because what we thought we had was a myth
On that we can absolutely agree. The myth was dispelled for me after reading Trail of Tears in highschool. One of the biggest hurdles to change is the majority of citizens being completely unaware of US history outside of the whitewashed jingoistic version where the US are the good guys instead of thr complicated truth that for almost our entire history our country has been exploiting one population or another.
