MODERATORS
From the party that brought you “we wish we could do something but the republicans won’t let us” comes “the republicans are worse, so what we’re doing is the best you’re going to get.”
Maybe we need another four years of Trump. Either way, fuck em, I’m not voting.
6-3 republicans advantage in the Supreme Court (thanks to people like you for helping trump to win in 2016). 51-49 senate majority that republicans can easily filibuster anything from the democrats. Even if not, the house is with Republicans and recent gerrymandering has made it way more difficult for democrats to hold the house.
But you’re right, democrats are not being held back by republicans… Why not do [insert mythical strategy here]? It worked [never]!
I think part of the problem with democrats is that the party can more easily depend on middle ground/conservative voters than they can depend on liberals actually voting for them.
I'm used to hearing this from your kind, just not so mask-off.
I prefer to think of it as "buying time to actually fix shit" because it's easier to patch up small holes than huge holes that are constantly getting larger
It’s always easier when the problem identifies itself, as you just have.
