Dems can't clear the filibuster. They're not likely to railroad weapons-grade faggotry through the legislature without ten extra votes in the Senate. Instead we'll just get regular faggotry that both parties already gladly support. Maybe a new stimulus for gender and women's studies in Turkey! Hurray!
Trump is planning his next moves. He's not going away and he'll be building a coalition. If he's smart he'll dump some money into communications platforms since you can bet his ass is off Twitter for good.
Get engaged wherever you can. Know your candidates top to bottom, and yes, that includes city dog catcher. Support good candidates with money or time. Actually communicate with them. Boomers were always good about this and my generation is a total failure at engagement, likely because we were too busy holding our dicks and playing Smash Bros.
A lot of organization starts at the county level. You can reach out to your county Republican Party chairman (ahem, chairperson) and find out what the lay of the land is, what's needed, etc. Most chair...people...? I've worked with exist to support anyone who is currently in office, so if you strongly feel that elected representative needs to be primaried, avoid the party.
We're not moving to a three party system. We have two parties that are so institutionally entrenched that a viable alternative isn't allowed to exist. I hate the Republicans but they're the best we've got to work with, unfortunately.
Lastly, and most importantly, election reform is a state by state issue. I would loooove to see some right-wing thinktank draft some ideal, transparent, and secure election processes, that every state could model and institute. I've seen that happen with gerrymandering reform - though with very little adoption, it's hard to get people motivated about gerrymandering. There's a lot of anger about this election and if you live in a fucky state, ie GEORGIA, the pressure needs to be on your legislature to fix this shit.
Read books, work out, meditate, don't let the bastards demoralize you.
I think we need a more covert approach. Infiltrate the Democrat ranks. Work for them at a local, state, or federal level. Get in their good graces. Gain their trust to get close to them, document every shady thing they do and expose them (like Project Veritas has been doing with the likes of the media and Antifa but more impactful).
Just as there are wolves in sheeps clothing on the GOP side, we need the same to disrupt their agenda. It annoyed me the first 2 years of Trump's term despite having an R majority in House and Senate, the Rs didn't band together like the Ds did during Obama's term to pass the ACA. We know with Biden/Harris that Ds (+Romney and Murkowski) are going to pull the same antics.
