Things that would have been effective:
• Leaving all at once
• Not showing up at all
• Counterprogramming
Things they did instead:
• Wore pink
• Auction paddles
• Pout

I think they like a despot in power. It helps them with the only thing they care about..,
Fundraising.

Dems are no longer it.
Where is the fight ?
Democrats politicians will not save this country, ever, they're weak babies
The democrats are the neville chamberlain of politics. Of course Hitler is an evil SOB but Chamberlain being a cuck is also a problem, just like democratic leadership
HOW MANY FUCKING TIMES DO I HAVE TO TELL YOU HUMANS THIS.
IF THEY CARED OR UPHELD THEIR OATH TO THE CONSTITUTION THIS DIP SHIT WOULD HAVE BEEN IMPEACHED ALREADY!!!
It's nice but it's nothing more than magical thinking.
Did Rosa Parks get shit done by "working with the fascists"? No, she made a scene and refused to not be counted. Same with MLK, Malcolm X etc etc.
It can't happen quietly.
The "way things were" isn't going to deliver change.
There is nothing to hold onto.
Every amendment is being destroyed in front of our eyes.
Miss an opportunity Dems
they keep pretending that everything's fine. normal will return.
"we'll come back on midterm elections!"
there might not be anything left by midterms.
I am beginning to think that losing is the point
Keeping the status quo... quo
•Amplify the people who did leave
•Amplify the people who didn’t show up
•Amplify the counter programming they did
Things you did instead:
•Amplify the shit you hated

You're paying for those people to raise their voice, to represent you. They're politicians. It's their JOB to negotiate and stay in contact.
Very counter productive to stay silent.
He's planning to invade Canada after decimating our economy.
And you think this guy is rational, someone to be negotiated with, by anyone?
He's working for Putin. He wants to destroy North America, for Putin. That's the end game.
The only language that people like Trump understand is rebellion and disrespect. That's the only way to get their attention. Anything else would just be seen - by him - as agreeing with him.
It's not their JOB to sit and watch the constitution be destroyed.
He's a typical narcissistic manager.
Handling and guiding people like that takes time and attention, but it's simple.
Put an idea in their head.
Let them think it was their idea.
Repeat.
The right did it to him.
He did to Tech Bros.
Now, we need to do it to him.
Actually standing up.
All the other Democrats are just there for the show, fame and definitely don't represent you if you're angry.
And that's me talking, not even being American.
The Democratic party has given up.
We need real leadership.

(kudos to Rep. Green from TX, though. He had it right.)
"You'd think you'd have more shame, but I understand this is just like a game of sims for you."
Sellers is right, and so are you.
We need a new party, a peoples party.
I nominate AOC and Jasmine Crockett to lead it!
I'm starting to wonder what kind of threats or incentives have been directed at them behind closed doors.🤔
Something's not right.
Each and every one, one at a time should have protested and been turfed one by one.
The sight of every democrat being removed one by one would have sent a clear message.
We need the big ones, but we also need to encourage where we can
(I'll admit.. the pink had me a bit confused. Didn't know what it was for, don't like pink, and I actually thought pink was a downplayed red for the Republican Party)
Maybe there will be a grand finale where pelosis wheelchair shoots fireworks.
