Because fucking corpos, lobbyists, and passive goons are make trusting anything pointless.
The DNC passed laws to remove money from politics, Republican SCOTUS judges tore it down in Citizens United, and they've lacked the power to make a constitutional amendment or reform the court ever since but they're always talking about it.
If people didn't trust money in politics it would be in their best interests to elect 60 DNC senators.
They’ve had complete control of the government multiple times in the last decade or so, and they failed to do anything with it. Democrats only talk about reform when they aren’t in power. When they’re wearing the boot, they’re fine with stepping on people and demanding they lick it.
Wow. I started to wonder what it's like in your head but decided that might be hell for me. Democrats won't step on others to make changes.
Remind me again, what did Biden and Harris do to students who were peacefully protesting against genocide last year?
Remind ME again what Drumpf does this year https://www.cnn.com/2025/03/11/us/mahmoud-khalil-columbia-ice-green-card-hnk/index.html
They haven't had 60 senators since 1979.
