I am astounded and flabbergasted. I'm just kidding, this was always going to happen because it was the plan all along. Yay low-information voters. Don't they just make democracy lots of fun??
Or do anything actually. But we all know they will fold and give in and offer only a token resistance so they can pretend like they cared. The mono party will not save us. No war but class war.
I don't think the Democrats are capable, as a group, of being the party of opposition. They are so deeply entrenched in their center-right view of the world that they hamstring most of their left leaning members whenever they start to move forward.
What *didnt* they oppose during that time? They impeached him twice and signed on to zero legislation, won back the house and then won back all three branches.
What was the left doing during that time and how were they hamstrung?
At this point, to be an opposition party to the current GOP, you have to be willing to sacrifice norms for progress. There is no law that says the Supreme Court is limited to nine justices. They should have packed the court.
Harris/Walz had the right idea with calling the antics of the GOP "weird", but it didn't go far enough. They need to appeal to the baseline emotions of their *own* party. Stop courting conservative votes. Support AOC, support Warren, support Schiff.
Nah fam, Nancy’s spending her time trying to stop AOC from gaining power and Joe Biden is quiet quitting the Presidency, actually talking about shit would be disrupting the norms or whatever.
And in the angry way, not tut-tut looks like ‘you are getting what you deserve because you are bad’, but he and billionaires like and cheat you, you want a better future and there are ways we can get that and here’s the alternative.
I feel it’ll be white noise to Trump supporters at this point. They were able to get past worrying about it in theory, now they’re primed to roll with it in actuality.
