amazing take thanks for sharing lol
Democrats sure seem to want to work with Republicans, which leftist policies have they adopted?
they didn't even budge on genocide.
keep your "cooperation" if it means fascism and fascism-lite.
Sorry we're not so complacent?
Single payer healthcare, student loan debt relief, capital gains tax, increasing corporate tax rate, legal marijuana, all the UBI experiments have been done in democratic locations and that’s just off the top of my head. I’m sure there’s more.
The only thing stopping democrats from getting legislation passed is seats in Congress.
Leftist haven’t been able to get elected for barely any congressional seats so our leftist legislation is only as successful as leftist are at getting elected.
But leftist look for any reason to not vote (genocide or whatever the hot topic is that election cycle) and refuse to work with other ideologies. So they never get enough votes to actually get anything passed. The sad thing is they end up blaming democrats for their inability to get anything done so they never learn from their mistakes.
I'll give you debt relief, with the caveat that it was more motivated by economics than political theory.
Listing off a bunch of campaign promises, or even weaker examples, things said only to try to win over actual progressives, which Democrats "simply didn't have enough seats" to pull off even while holding a majority, and then brushing off a "hot topic" issue of actually funding a Holocaust in our times.
That attitude is why we're here
