    On the other hand, Jack Smith is stuck between a rock and a hard place. Either he winds down the case, and dismiss it without prejudice, hoping to open a new trial before the statute of limitation runs down during Trump’s presidency, or he asks for a stay to freeze the statute of limitation countdown, but that gives the opportunity for Trump to hire a new special counsel, resume the trial and dismiss it with prejudice, not allowing this to be tried ever again.

      Yeah, that stuff matters because trump won’t pardon himself day 1…

      We put all our money behind ineffectual moderates in 2020, they failed, and that depressed turnout allowing trump to be president again.

      I just hope 3x is the limit and we don’t fuck up 2028 by running another ineffectual moderate.

      But considering the same group of wealthy elites fund our only two options…

      We’re gonna have to do more than just hope the DNC finally pulls it’s head out of its ass and starts fighting.
