This is the reason we must eliminate the Electoral College. There is no reason that voters in Wyomings votes should count more than in California.
Imagine where America would be in the eyes of the world today if we had never had a trump presidency.
We would still be admired.

Stephen A. Smith DROPS the “Socialist” Question on Abdul El-Sayed — The Candidate Turns the Tables on Billionaires and Corporate Greed
Stephen A. Smith: Forgive the obvious question, but are you a socialist?
Dr. Abdul El-Sayed: I’m not. I’m a capitalist who understands capitalism.
Adam Smith, who coined the term capitalism, said there is no market without morals. He also said the biggest danger to capitalism wasn’t government regulation, but monopoly.
Think about it. Your phone is probably made by one of two manufacturers. You have one of three major carriers.
If you fly to another state, you’re probably using one of three airlines and one of two aircraft manufacturers.
We have monopolies and oligopolies throughout our economy, and that’s anti-capitalist.
Capitalism is supposed to use supply and demand to allocate scarce resources. It was never meant to allow massive corporations to dominate entire markets.
Even worse, these corporations use their money to influence the politicians responsible for regulating them.
I believe in free markets. That’s exactly why we need to regulate corporations and stop them from buying politicians.

What Trump did by demolishing the Historic East Wing will go down in history as one of the worst acts by American President. The White House belongs to the American people and not Trump and it’s time that we took it back and the midterms were just a start.

Not one word from Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson, who were so deeply concerned about aging politicians in 2024? Trump has visible dementia symptoms; Mitch McConnell appears unable to speak - where are Tapper and Thompson?

For over 30 years, Susan Collins has been feeding Mainers her table scraps, and now she’s mad that instead of thanking her for them, working people chose to take her seat at the table. Even in defeat, her arrogance is astounding.
Senator Susan Collins to The New York Times after losing re-election:
“Everybody ignores the fact that I voted to convict him in the second impeachment trial,” Ms. Collins said.
“What bigger break could there be? It is never enough. I want results and they want angry rhetoric.”

People in Maine figured out her cynical game - she only voted against Trump when she knew it wouldn’t change the outcome. When she was finally asked in a debate to name one time she voted against Trump when it mattered, she couldn’t name one.

Susan Collins refused to give a concession speech to her voters, but she did have time to give a long interview to the New York Times to explain the ways in which they were ungrateful.

The Trump White House gives a platform to the top financial adviser to Putin, a war criminal killing civilians and kidnapping children in Ukraine, and allows him to talk about "compassion." This is gross--and a big propaganda win for Putin.

Fight the narrative:
It's not RETRIBUTION.
It's about ACCOUNTABILITY
AND THE RETURN OF THE RULE OF LAW

NEW: In a bitter post-defeat interview with one of her favorite beltway media errand-runners (Carl Hulse of The New York Times) Susan Collins lashes out, putting the blame for her loss squarely on the voters themselves; says Mainers lost sight of what matters. #MEpolitics

Next CR needs this rider:
“None of the funds made available by this or any other Act may be obligated or expended to plan, design, demolish, construct, furnish, secure, operate, or maintain a ballroom at the White House or on the White House grounds, including any salaries or expenses of federal personnel supporting such work and any costs of accepting or administering private donations for it.”

Susan Collins, a unifying source of pride for Maine and avatar for her home state as recently as 9 yrs ago, has been defeated.
She made a devil's bargain w/ a madman and now, in an epic fall from from grace, has lost not only her good name but also her office. Shakespeare stuff.

🚨🚨 MAJOR BREAKING: In a huge flip, Troy Jackson has DEFEATED Susan Collins in the Maine Senate race! 🚨🚨

This is crazy. This appeaser cannot be made Majority Leader in 2027. NO.

Susan Collins’ election day message to Maine from her top surrogate: Troy Jackson is “a bumpkin.”
Disrespectful. Elitist. Susan Collins showing her true disdain for working people. Tonight, we defeat her.

Excellent piece by a former Portland Press Herald reporter about how Susan Collins pressures the local media to report favorably about her.
