On an aside note, I seem to be the only person that something fishy was with the aggregate presidential numbers.

When I checked the Wiki article on Election 2024 the day after the election, it had Trump at 71m and Harris at 65m. Both these numbers kept increasing. By the end of November, the count was 77m Trump and 75m Harris. It seems that 16m votes were not counted in the first two days.

The Harris campaign office must have noticed things were not adding up. Why did they concede so early?

And yes, I've heard a few internet rumors that there was some skulduggery from the R side. Maybe more will come out later.

I know you've already been to my "Democracy is a Greyscale" article. So I won't bring up the fact that we were not really much of a true democracy. FDR was an aberration. The NDP Party led the progressive way in Canada, but were not electorally successful.

The trope "reform the system from within" is a trick not to make the changes I am suggesting. While providing the necessary pushback to keep the USA with elections in 2028, the Democratic Party is probably already convinced it can win 2028---because they are not the Republicans.

The TDG must be built outside of the current system, free from all the chaos and rhetoric to learn the necessary skills of TDG governance.

And the TDG can still be built during an oligarchy.
