people are just pissed and venting about past inaction, is it useful? no, but I think the frustration of your country turning to fascism after Bernie’s electoral chances were sabotaged is understandable
For the people screaming for the Dems to do something: this is it. This is the extent of their power with the number of votes they have. If anything, we should be urging Republican lawmakers to abandon ship.
How about getting a filing of an impeachment notion going? No doubt it’d fail, but it goes on record and everyone who voted against it gets listed. Keep it going and you see the pattern by the time the midterms come around?
Performative. No meaningful action.
Not sure what you’re thinking is going to happen right now when dems are a minority in the house and senate.
What did Mitch McConnell do when the Democrats had a supermajority under Obama, sit with his thumb up his ass?
be specific. he also wanted obama to have a single term. That didn’t happen.
The Republicans broke the record for obstruction under Obama. We need that to happen right now under Trump.
We need a left Tea Party.
Mitch McConnell had the benefit of dealing with weak, spineless Dem weenies who would roll over for him, even though they had majorities.
MAGA Nazis aren’t going to be cooperative.
Well it’s a sure thing that nothing will happen if they don’t try.
He filibustered.
Cabinet Appointments cannot be filibustered under current senate rules. Same for SCOTUS judges.
He did filibuster Public Option into the grave, though.
Since when did the Republicans give two shits about some bullshit “senate rules?” They just change that shit whenever it suits them.
So do the same.

wtf?
Bernie ran in pretty successful but also lost the primaries by some pretty sizeable margins.
i actually didn’t read into it, I’ve just always heard the narrative that the DNC snubbed Bearnie, did the propaganda catch me?

You just described her whole political career.
