    Trump may not be inevitable, but a Republican/ fascist victory is (maybe not in 2024, but eventually).

    The system is set up so that control flips between the GOP and DNC, and basically all the GOP candidates are pushing to expand executive power and quash democracy.

    If you think that either:

    1. we can perpetually prevent Republicans from ever getting elected to President again

    2. all Republicans are not going to continue their push to eliminate democracy as the country becomes generationally less in-line with their right-wing policies

    you are naive.

    And if you think (most) Democrats are going to do anything but ride their stock portfolios all the way to the wall, rather than take the actions needed to quash fascism, you’re straight delusional.
