  1. As if there wasn’t enough to love these two already, they also piss Musk off! Hell yeah!

  2. It’s so funny- Musk pays for votes, trump hires actors for his rallies…so they assume everyone else throws money around like they have it.  Ha ha ha

  3. Hopefully it will increase involvement and voting. The “I don’t care” party is the largest one in America.

  4. Democrats must adhere to the KISS principle, Keep It Simple Stupid !!!!!

    Most voters don’t read beyond the headlines. People are broadly informed about politics from the impressions of others. Tweets, memes on Facebook, TikTok rants, comedians, etc. mostly all short form and quick takes. The more detailed a policy proposal is the more words that will be required to example it. The less likely it is to fit in a headline or tweet.

    Democrats should aggressively state they are for Soc Sec. They should use words like “protect”, “fight for”, “save”, and remind people it belongs to them. Democrats should avoid words that imply they will be meddling around with it like “change”, “update”, “compromise”, “new”, etc. Don’t get bogged down in discussions about raising the age limit vs benefits percentages. If asked how they plan to save it just say “by making everyone pay their fair share.” Keep It Simple Stupid, KISS.

    “Save Soc Sec”, “Protect Medicare”, “Public Pre-K”, “pro- Union”, “raise the minimum wage”, “legalize marijuana”, and be for telework. Just repeat it. Make sure people hear the what and don’t be burdened in every interview with the how.

    AOC is crushing it right now by keeping it simple.

  5. Corruption is the disinfectant to a budding autocracy/oligarchy. Keep hammering the message home. Create a firestorm of hatred for the obvious corruption on full display.

  6. Thank you Bernie, AOC and all the brave Americans who are showing up. Thank you to the folks in Detroit this weekend who were protesting against Trump and supporting Canada. The fight back is happening! 🇨🇦 🇬🇧 and 🇪🇺is with you! Keep going and keep growing!

  7. How long before the chants of ‘lock them up’ starts… Americans use to pride themselves on freedom… however now support in your face facism..

  8. Have you heard the echoes of TAX THE RICH in red districts ALL across this country. People are holding Town Halls and voicing their frustrations to empty chair Republicans and actual living Democrats because those are their choices.

  9. Not sure why it would make republicans nervous. It should make oligarchs fucking terrified. 🔥🍽️🔥

  10. If you’re pissed at people promoting to fight oligarchy, you are probably the oligarchy

  12. Also of note, take heed of Democrat cowards who decide to start speaking up when the movement gets attention and gathers steam. They’re just as power hungry as the Republicans and not motivated by the people they represent, Those people care about their dollar and nothing more.

    I really hope that AOC and Bernie pick some good decent people to join the campaign.

  16. It is a little ironic they keep calling people complaining at town halls or going to events “paid protestors” as if they don’t live on bribery and paying people off (especially Elon, who *just keeps* trying to very publicly pay voters and buy positions *consistently*).

    Then again, they’ve always been ones to project what they’re actually doing onto their political opponents and pretend it’s them doing it instead. If they accuse you of it, they’re likely doing it or some form of it.

  17. If it pisses off the dork overlord musk then its great!

  19. I really like the message “fight oligarchy” as, to me, it seems to be heading towards future slogans.

  20. It’s also scaring moderate Dems or Republican Lites. They are complaining about AOC and Bernie too. Tells you it’s pissing off the right rich donors.

  21. Cuck Schumer needs to step down already. This isn’t a joke. That old piece of slime thinks he can enrich himself while America is dismantled by a far right cult. He needs to be removed and let AOC or a younger contingent lead. Let people that can bring the fight to the cult out.

  23. Good. Someone let trump know elon needs his fucking diaper changed

  24. When are news stations going to start just broadcasting all of these live like they did with Trump for the last decade

  26. Bernie is not campaigning for Bernie right now. Bernie is campaigning for DEMOCRACY!

  28. Old school dems like Schumer should be nervous too.

  29. It should be making DEMOCRATS nervous. Primary every feckless spineless one and replace them with progressives.

  30. Bernie always got huge crowds when he was running. The goal now is to convert *new* voters, to gently push them leftward.

  31. I’m so baffled by these billionaires. What’s the long game? Did they think that everyone would cheer on their subjection like the MAGA hoard? Do they think the rest of the world will stand by and continue to bow to a country speed running its decline? They’re so short sighted. I can’t tell if it’s a long con or just hubris that borders on delusion.

    They should add Pete Buttigieg to the mix. He has a great way of explaining complex concepts in plain English.

  33. Not nervous enough. Maybe when he fears his life enough to leave the country. That sounds just about right.

  34. Dont really care. Kamala had huge crowds too. What we need is people voting when it matters not showing up to rallies for optics only to not act when it counts
