Now do you believe people when they say they have a 2 party system with Republicans vs ~~Democrats~~ other republicans?
BoTh SiDeS
Books are where it's at!
Edit: Why do you dislike books so much?
It's abundantly obvious the parties are different. I'm snarky because so many mental sloths exist. Be bothered to think and I'll be less snarky. Specific, non-hyperbolic factual criticisms are not what I take issue with.
If you say the parties are the same you're either revealing how grossly ignorant you are, or what a liar you are. No grey area there really.
Just look at how they voted in tabling to be able to vote on if Trump's articles of impeachment. Way too many democrats voted yes to not vote on it. It's as if most of them don't want to look at the fascism happening, and stick their heads in the sand. In my blue state only one voted to hear the articles of impeachment. Fuck.

Edit: Why is this getting downvoted?
Lol I'm the state agent here, Vlad
All for the sake of hatred of books. Books are where it's at!
Edit: Why are you downvoting my love of books?
Because you're posting like someone without two brain cells to rub together.

Of all the reasons to impeach Trump, the one selected in that case was the most precarious.
It should be unacceptable for the president to unilaterally make such a risky military maneuever, however you can cite some precedent in every administration for over 60 years. So you have to answer why only this time is the president impeachable for a unilateral strike when that has been normal for presidents for a very long time.
I get it, it's unconscionable how Netanyahu has treated Gaza and the West Bank, it's supremely risky how they and the US engaged with Iran. It's shocking this level of military risk can be incurred by the executive branch without warning. However without some laws indicating the status quo has changed, there's nothing to hold the office accountable for being consistent with every other administration in living memory.
Besides, while reactions over Gaza have significantly more popular sympathy for the Palestinians, the popular opinion of the Iranian regime is not so sympathetic, and thus far the nature of the strikes seem to be more surgical in nature than what has happened in Gaza, so this isn't exactly the political opinion to bet everything on.
Trump's administration almost daily gives more unique and blatantly illegal behaviors that could be the focus of articles of impeachment, and this was just a poor choice.

If they're the same, you wouldn't even need to say it

Racist fanboy POS
Blocking you now, you disgust me.
Glad they will put your miserable fash partyall in the trash with the Red MAGA.
Good, now I can call out one more scumbag without garbage takes in my inbox.
The VOTERS of each party are different. The actual leaders of each party, the actual people running the party apparatus? There's very little difference between the parties in terms of actual leadership.
One party sometimes pretends to help, the other viciously kills all in its path and is proud of it. Yep, basically the same. Sometimes I cannot tell Bernie Sanders from Trump. Same person.
