Exactly I’ve been saying this for months and people argued with me telling me that’s negative. No, that’s fucking reality right in your faces. You’re trying to play fair with somebody breaking rules and not playing fair
Yep, they’ve got to come up with a new TOUGH playbook to get DT and EM out of our government. Somebody has got to be smart enough to discover how the election was stolen by EM thus vacating DT presidency and installing the real elected president Harris.
I’ve been thinking about this and most people are rule followers. People are still stopping at traffic lights and not jumping line. So we haven’t lost order yet…but I’m worried that having a Felon in chief will start to change all that.
It's like one team playing in the SuperBowl respected the rules of the game while the other team just started beating the shit out of the other team with baseball bats, defying all the rules of the game and claiming that was how they would certainly "win" the game.
I will respectfully disagree. Barack Obama, Joe Biden, Kamala Harris and Bill Clinton attending the installation of the Orange Fascist Dictator was “following the rules” and they knew this would not be a peaceful transfer of power. I will forever believe they were wrong.
Okay, but there’s a huge difference between doing what the GOP has been doing since Obama; actually working with and respecting the Constitution, and choosing whether to attend a function or not.
I get it. But the poster reads as saying throw all out the window.
Stop blaming democrats! It's the GOP who created this shit. Harris, Biden, Obama all tried desperately to warn the public but NO. 77 million people preferred a RAPIST, RACIST, LIAR, THIEF, CON, TRAITOR. We need to go after GOP and stop shooting yourself in the foot!
I’m a lifelong Democrat. I’m not a silent Democrat & will call them out when I believe they’ve taken action or inaction that I don’t agree with. I don’t agree that Harris, Biden & Obama have taken the lead on screaming from the rooftops & they should not have attended the installation of a Fascist!
Agree they shouldn't have attended but what's needed NOW is the removal of Trump and Muskkk. Dems are the underdog and have ZERO ability to do much about ANYTHING. It's up to ALL U.S. people.
Did any provide the swing vote causing a nominee to be confirmed when they would otherwise be rejected?
If not, their votes are symbolic. I haven't seen evidence that symbolic rejection persuaded the electoral majority.
Clearly Dem votes had an impact and we will never know if all Dems voting no would have swayed 1 or 2 relatively decent MAGA members of the U.S. Senate.
Apathy is what got us here 33,000,000 sat it out because they couldn't get their mind around a black woman running this country. Now a fat white old man who is responsible for 500,000 folks losing their lives as he told them to drink bleach or horse wormer. Now he and musk are raiding the treasury.
The Congressional GOP doesn't care what they think any more than my elected reps care what I think.
They do care what their base thinks, so the hard part is persuading Trump voters to stand up against overreach.
I haven't watched professional wrestling since the 70s. 🙄 I remember the bad guy would break the rules, and the good guy and the crowd would get riled up. That's what I liked about it. Somehow, the bad guys became...popular.🤦♂️ We need to get riled up!
I have been screaming this since the spineless ass right wing of the SCOTUS gave him carte blanch - rules don’t matter and when you drill down because the 6 aforementioned SOB said the laws ready don’t anymore either
Ok.
Let's take away the rules.
Do you know who gets their way then? The person in command of law enforcement and the military. That's Trump.
For the moment, what we can do is yell and scream and slow things down while filing lawsuits and hoping to God that the courts still can make them back down.

Obey the master.
But Trump and the Republicans are trying to destroy our democracy
It is time to suit up!
And when they go low, that’s where you hit em.
Following the rules isn’t the problem. Putting a fraud in power is. So is letting the GOP sleep peacefully. 🫤
I get it. But the poster reads as saying throw all out the window.
There is no more we go high when they go low.
Dip off the mythical high road. Time to enter the fray, fists and hair -metaphorically (or not)- flying.
Safe messaging won’t save the day,
Not when freedoms slipping away.
History begs for fight, not charm,
Dem leaders need to sound the alarm!
If not, their votes are symbolic. I haven't seen evidence that symbolic rejection persuaded the electoral majority.
That’s it. That’s the only rule. And we have too many other rules to be able to fight it.
