The crucial time for the dems to cave was the first three weeks of the shutdown, but now they can rely on the looming threat of Thanksgiving and the pain of more missed paychecks to discipline Trump
100s of millions of normie Americans are not gonna take kindly to having their Thanksgiving treats disrupted by missed flights and broke relatives
The biggest capital holiday of the year is coming: black Friday.
This capital holiday, this entire holiday season, has already been well and thoroughly fucked by this admin.
Normies denied treats are already screaming. People losing food benefits are screaming. Soon, the grocery stores will scream, the retailers will scream, and perhaps even wall street will scream. It’s like if Rome had all the bread and circuses in the world, but executed the clowns (I know they were races, but bear with me) in the streets and pissed on all the bread, instead of distracting the public.
Honestly I keep thinking that if you’re interested in dual power structures, you need to be building all of this yesterday because there is no better time to exploit demonstrable weakness and build class solidarity.
