US—Democrats have become increasingly terrified that if Donald Trump is elected president again, he will do exactly what they’re doing to him and his supporters right now. “We are committed to ensuring that Trump and his supporters are prosecuted, censored, and imprisoned, and we are afraid that if Donald Trump is elected again, he will use his power to do exactly what we’re doing to him and his supporters right now,” said former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. “This is a nightmare,” said one former Democratic official, who spoke on condition of anonymity. “I’ve always thought that the best way to defeat Donald Trump was to silence him and his supporters, and what better way to achieve that than by doing exactly what he’s doing to us right now?” But not everyone is convinced, and many people are calling the Democrats’ fears a self-fulfilling prophecy, arguing that it is impossible for Trump to do exactly what they’re doing to him and his supporters if they don’t keep doing it themselves. “This is ridiculous,” said one skeptical observer, who spoke on condition of anonymity. “How can anyone think that it’s a good idea to keep doing exactly what they’re doing to Trump and his supporters, and then be afraid that he’ll do the same thing to them? It’s like being afraid of your own shadow.” Despite the backlash, the Democrats remain defiant, and they have vowed to continue doing exactly what they’re doing to Trump and his supporters, no matter what the consequences may be. “I know that this is a risky strategy, but I believe that it’s the right thing to do,” said one Democratic strategist, who spoke on condition of anonymity. “We cannot allow Trump and his supporters to have a voice, and I am committed to doing everything in my power to ensure that they are silenced once and for all.” In the end, only time will tell whether the Democrats’ fears are justified or not, but one thing is certain: this bizarre and outlandish story is sure to inspire a new generation of conspiracy theorists and political opportunists, and to remind us all that sometimes, the most effective way to take down one’s enemies is to simply make things up as one goes along.

Some brands feel very comfortably seated at the top of their respective industries—but change still finds a way of manifesting. For decades, Pepsi has been firmly established as the second-best-selling soda in America, but now, Dr. Pepper has unseated the brand from its number two spot. CNN has reported on market share data that tracks sales of all major soda brands. Ranking at number one is Coca-Cola, selling over the competition by a significant margin, making up for almost 20% of soda sales. But this upset that’s been decades in the making represents not just good fortune for Dr. Pepper but also some financial misfortune for Pepsi. Dr. Pepper sells as well as and better than Pepsi for the first time in decades For the first time in decades, Pepsi has been unseated as America’s second-favorite soda, displaced by Dr. Pepper / Unsplash While Coke continues to enjoy its seat at the top, right below, a fight for second place has Dr. Pepper and Pepsi locked in combat. According to data from the trade publication Beverage Digest, over the years, Dr. Pepper has slowly but steadily gained market shares, culminating in moving up in the ranks as of 2023. RELATED: How Pepsi Used Pop Music to Build an Empire While Coke had 19.2% of soda market shares last year, Dr. Pepper managed to match Pepsi at 8.3%, with Dr. Pepper ending up technically leading. This came from a bit of a two-pronged attack, to the good doctor’s benefit. “Dr Pepper has been gaining, [Pepsi] has been declining, and they’re meeting in the middle,” explained Beverage Digest editor Duane Stanford in an interview with CNN. The brand is leaning into its longtime identity as an adaptable beverage that’s in touch with trends Dr. Pepper has kept up with trends to increase its popularity / Flickr Dr. Pepper was established in 1985 in Waco, Texas, and actually predates both Coca-Cola and Pepsi. While it had a difficult climb to the almost top, it has been strategic in its marketing in a way that brands these days have to be. Dr. Pepper has always promoted itself as a versatile beverage, claiming to be comprised of 23 flavors, a boast that helped it grow from a regional favorite into a national hit. Into the present day, it makes sure to maintain a steady presence in the cultural eye of America thanks in part to social media. Inspired by TikTok’s dirty soda trend, Dr. Pepper put out the limited-time flavor Creamy Coconut.

They also report that Pepsi may not have done itself any favors by focusing on so many of its numerous brands, thus stretching itself thin while Dr. Pepper has had time to focus on one.
