So all the judges stopping his bullshit from passing is nothing? Along with the judges that overturn his bullshit, that’s nothing also? And Corey Booker’s 19 hour long (and counting) filibuster is nothing? What about all the people that actually VOTED to try and stop this from happening in the first place? Or the people that fucking warned you this would happen.

Nothing?

You all seem to have an odd definition of “doing nothing” that’s for sure. Maybe if you all… did nothing instead of staying home during an election we’d be in a much better place.

At least we never went socialist.

That will provide me a lot of comfort when the Fascists brutally murder me and my family for our dissent. At least they weren't filthy socialists that tried to feed, cloth, or house anyone without condition. What a nightmare hellscape that would have been.

It's interesting how when the Democrats are in power they struggle to get legislation across the line, get "outraged" when Republicans stymie their efforts, and eventually agree to cut bills down to the point where they're achieving a fraction of what they were supposed to.

But when Republicans are in power, Dems seem incapable of putting up any resistance and cry to their voters that if only they just had a few more donation dollars they'd be able to defeat fascism and then turn around and let the Republicans pass whatever awful legislation they want.

Their opposition is purely performative.

Ranked choice voting would help big time. But neither party will ever allow it.

Correct on both counts.
