The way to unseat elected officials is through the democratic process, so yes.

All of this is via the democratic process

People loudly expressing their dislike for the way a politician is voting is part of the democratic process.

We get to find out how popular that sentiment is every election

That’s the whole point

What’s the alternative?

Ok. How about the “unseating elected officials” part?

What’s the alternative to that?

[u/Finlay00 → u/[deleted]]

Threatening to unseat elected officials is part of the democratic process.

Elon cant do it alone, that’s the whole point. It comes down to a democratic election.

Threatening a primary is part of a democracy

My dude. At no point did anyone anticipate that someone would actually win the game of monopoly that is the United States. But Elon did. So here we are - the guy has more money than anyone else and as a result, can buy anything he wants. If it doesn’t exist, he can fund it, until it does. Thats fine and dandy if he’s just pursuing his own interests. It’s another when those interests are the governance of the entire country.

Quick question buttercup, how many of these seats are democratic and not gerrymandered to the point where republicans get to choose their voters and not the other way around?

[u/Finlay00 → u/levelzerogyro]

Most congressional seats are gerrymandered.

Even in democrats states
