i get why the Democratic leaders are tired of opposing everything. Me too! But the thing is, I have a job and have to do this too. Opposing everything IS their job. Do it 8 hours a day! Do it overtime! What else are you even there for?

When the Democrats lose, it's because they've demoralized their base and their voters stay home. The way to keep them engaged and energized is to keep fighting.
They genuinely thought they were going to be able to sit on the sideline and fundraise off of his nonsense for four more years. Nope, no more money, get your ass up.
The gop has obstructed every dem admin. Dems look unable to act. GOP takes control and dems want to work with them. So they look good. I’m not a political scientist but I would think they would catch on.
I think of this Al Swearengen quote a lot these days.
“In life you have to do a lot of things you don't f***ing want to do. Many times, that's what the f*** life is... one vile f***ing task after another. But don't get aggravated... then the enemy has you by the short hairs.”
I think the time has come where massive protests by the ppl will have to become EVERYBODY’s full time job. They are cowards. They will be intimidated by an enormous and unrelenting SHOW OF FORCE. If not Americans could lose everything. I really hope this happens.
We'll lose most fights, but if they succeed in frustrating Senate Repubs to the point that Lindsey Graham throws a public crying hissy fit, it will have been worth it.
I know you’re being rhetorical. It’s sad that they’re actually there to move up the chain, amass power, gain access to soft money, then upon leaving secure extremely lucrative consulting jobs, govt contractor gigs, and c-suite level positions like CEOs, Prez of Ivy League schools, think tanks, etc.
