Democrats are campaigning as if the 2026 election will be fair. That’s a mistake | Austin Sarat

Trump’s remarks and Project 2025’s proposals have made the plan clear. Democrats must focus on stopping it

There’s a lot to digest here.

The thing that struck me most though was the article mentions was the tactic of allowing voters to place their vote in any state. Voter Tourism, essentially.

As the article mentions - expect something similar from the administration.

If that happens then personally I think that’s a huge sign that the mid-terms will be compromised.

Free and fair democracy is so important. It must not be destroyed.

    I have listened to Hakeem Jeffries a lot in interviews and the strangest thing is that I legitimately believe that he is a true believer in the Democratic project, and not a cynical opportunist. Somehow he believes that the neoliberal project from the 1990s that has already failed is truly the best way forward. Dude is a bit of a moron but I legitimately think he believes everything he says and does is right.
