Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis reaffirmed in a local news interview that she will announce charging decisions by September 1 in her investigation into efforts by Donald Trump and his allies to overturn Georgia’s 2020 presidential election result, while applauding the ramped-up security measures around the local courthouse.

    Things are heating up. The collapse of the GOP is about to occur. 2024 is shaping up to be the largest Democratic Party win since FDR.

      The collapse of the GOP is about to occur.

      I sure hope you’re right, and by that I mean I hope they have to restructure so as to shed the crazy alt-right section of the party back into the fringes.

        I hate to be the one to tell you, but at this point the hard right is the party.

        Let it die, then the conservative wing of the Democratic Party will split off to give us an actual conservative party again.

          This is the interesting thing to me in the US. Despite what politicians say, Democrat does not equal left. Democrat equals center for the most part now, while Republican is just reaaaallly far right now.

            Republicans gave up on being the pro-business, pro-capitalism party when they decided that loyalty to Dear Leaders is more important than economic prosperity.

            Responsible business leaders don’t want someone like DeSantis in power — someone who decides to attack successful businesses for extremely mild political dissent, undermines the economy to score anti-immigrant hate points with his base, wrecks educational institutions that train young workers, and so on. That shit is not how to keep capitalism working.

            The Republican ideal of a successful business is a theft or fraud enterprise led by a politically-reliable mini-tyrant.

          Yeah, suppose I can’t argue with you there. Whichever way gets us to the hard/alt right being shunned/fringe, I’m hoping for it.

        All signs show the GOP is about to repeat 1974. Democrats won 30 of 34 Senate seats, gained 49 seats in the House, and too 31 of the 37 Gubernatorial seats.

      I’ll believe it when I see it. They said the same thing about 2016, and then we got this for four years. Said the Dems had it in the bag. Said there was no chance he’d win.

      I sure hope so, but I learned not to underestimate how cynical they can get. They’ll try to do some really slimy shot before they allow a collapse, and unfortunately the system is rigged just enough that it might work.

        There are still a lot of variables but historically the same outcome has occurred time and time again.
