And this is why Democrats will keep losing.

      I mean what the fuck are they even doing?

      When the Republicans were out in 2020, they pushed back on everything and everyone, fuck the consequences, which there never are any, and let their base know they had their backs regardless, and even if they voted they damn well made it known they did so reluctantly.

      Here you’ve got Democrats who aren’t even putting things up for a fight and then they have members going on air touring how great these guys are, fucking Fetterman.

      There’s no spine in any of these Democrat assholes so why the hell would I vote for any of them at this point if your going to make it easy for fascists? There is no lesser of two evils now, just sickening enablers.

        They’re doing what they always did: uphold the status quo.

        The veil is pulled back, neither party (save for a few progressive senators) actually gave a shit about anyone but themselves. The DNC was just better at pretending, using rainbow capitalism to hide it.

        @inclementimmigrant

        They still govern by ‘gentleman rules’ but the GOP and Trump aint fucking gentlemen. They’re fucking Nazis using the system against them…

        Perhaps the Dems realize there won’t be another vote, and they’re better off kissing ass now if hey want their jobs.

          If they realized anything, they would have realized that if they keep enabling this shit, their jobs are absolutely gone and likely their lives.

      Then they’d piss off their own donors too…

      You know when the last big cut to the federal workforce was?

      The 90s when Clinton was in office.

      You know what trump was doing in the 90s? Donating so much to the DNC that the Clinton’s came to one of his sham weddings.

      If you want to know why neoliberals aren’t opposing Donald Trump, it’s because they’ve literally been working together to destroy the federal government and replace it with oligarchs for the last 30 years.

      So stop acting surprised already, and start opposing them.

      Ah but bipartisanship. Mr. Hitler will surely see sense any day now, if we’re polite and reasonable and try not to anger him.
