Depending on how you reckon some ambiguous cases, SCOTUS has applied the 'principle' somewhere in the ballpark of 17 to 20 times since Purcell itself twenty years ago. Of those, 15 to 17 (again depending on how you count a few deadlock cases w/ no majority) were wins for Republicans over Dems. 85%+

i think the most telling media episode for democrats is that when the narrative turned on them re israel the response wasn't to use the platforms to create a counternarrative. instead the democratic president signed legislation to kill tiktok. thats the dem donor/party mindset. and its dumb.

i simply do not think the dem party as currently constituted is capable of doing the things that need to be done with a hypothetical 2029 trifecta. and i really do not think their primary voters fully understand that and ready to kick the bums out, either

look at this messaging failure. its like they can't see the reality in front of their eyes. trump is the leader of the gop. everything he does has their blessing and support. but the dem message is still, after all this, "we can work with republicans." meanwhile republicans are calling to end us.

its going to be VERY hard to prosecute ice. the right-wing media machine will be in full force calling it a war on cops. your local police departments will refuse to cooperate and probably impede. it will be difficult, it has to be done, why should i believe you have the stomach for it?

Dems and mainstream media are trapped in a doom loop. When objectively scandalous things happen, the media waits for Dems to treat them as scandals and Dems wait for the media to treat them as scandals. Eventually everyone just moves on.
