You are absolutely correct. I sure hope the dems are working behind the scenes to make this happen. Need to find a better leader of the House than Jeffries.

Not sure about how could be my preferred Speaker at this point but I am sure that it needs to be from the Democratic Party.

It’s going to happen but with R resignations, not dem action. The Schumers will hang on forever, just as the magas, as they are really two sides of the same coin.

“The Turning Point” by Fritjof Capra 1982 got this in the last Century. Counter Ideas the miscreants like Thiel and Musk and Miller have dumped on their stupider colleagues to counteract the inevitable, a mature race of people dedicated to making things better, not worse at every turn.

On Nov 11, 1964, the NYT had an article entitled ‘Nixon Recommends Move to the Center—Rejects Rightist Extremism’.

The thought expressed was similar. The center is the best place for many reasons, not least of which is to reduce the alienating that will inevitably occur. If an administration is too far left, it distances too many right of center and vice versa.

We have a fight on our hands. Trump and the R’s know they’re in big trouble in the midterms so they will try everything underhanded they can to hold onto power. We will need to fight fire with fire. We had a slow start and it isn’t in our Dem DNA to be fighters but we’re on the right track now. Let’s just not fall into the purity test trap. That’s a problem for us. Winning is all that matters right now and removing this plague Trump and his whole crew has to be our only mantra. Our continued democracy depends on it.

Thank you, Zev. I didn’t realize how urgent this is. And I have no idea who is going to be the one to lead us.
