This has all been theater for a long time.
Our owners just don't care to pretend otherwise anymore, because they no longer need to. They're even starting to cut out the former "opposition" party they got on the take in the 80s to accomplish this coup.
Welcome to the party most have willfully ignored, hoping to be a big winnah in a sea of exploited losers.
Sad most just want to back this off to the neoliberal policies that set the table for this and call that victory, when we need a new framework, something between the New deal and Norway. Unless we socially enfranchise our society from the bottom up with tangible, economic support, and start judging the health of our society by our worst off members, we'd meet right back here after another 10-15 years of the well bribed good cop party(D) being just dandy with murder for profit health insurance schemes and our most betrayed neighbors dying under our crumbling freeways.
Centimillionaire and proud neoliberal Nancy Pelosi spent the months before Trump took power safeguarding the levers of Congressional power... From AOC.

This constitution has failed. It failed decades ago, but few were willing to acknowledge the ugly truth. If you don't accept that as a starting point if you're American, you're still digging.
