And that is what is stressing me out, and if I were less aware yeah, a stong-appearing leader might be an attractive candidate. Over 80% of the US is in this situation, according to some studies.
In 2020, Biden and Harris were the most right-wing of the possible candidates in the DNC primary. Biden made more effort than I expected but less than people need.
Harris needs to push for election reform to give more power to the public, and in the meantime push for way more relief while we figure out how to gut SCOTUS (maybe literally) and restore the power for the state and federal government to regulate commercial interests.
Then and only then will the US back away from one-party autocracy and civil war.
Long odds.
It may be too late already.
But that is the road back away from the precipice.
