If they didn't suck so much it wouldn't be so valid of a criticism.
Get your own fuckin house together. Then we can talk.
not good that your guy is receiving $400 mil airplanes
Not my fucking guy. I don't care about the fucking plane.
I want the democrats to stop pretending this is an episode of West Wing and play hardball. I want them to act like any of this matters. Because it actually matters.
What doesn't do anything is finger wagging and gotya tweets. That kind of shit appeals to a insignificantly small demographic of Brunch Liberals and literally nobody else. They should be filibustering every single republican bill and denying every political appointment. Leadership should be stripping committee appointments and threatening primaries on turncoat dems. The entire party should as a singular unit be blocking everything they can. They should be aggressively promoting an alternative policy agenda with real tangible benefits for real people.
But they won't do any of that. They'll stand around cock-in-hand and wait for Schumer's strategy of "give them everything they want" to payoff somehow (think trickledown) because the DNC is a corporation. They really aren't bothered by all the disastrous shit Chump is doing because it benefits them too.
I just hope Boeing puts as much time and love and care into the custom 747 as they have done with the 737 Max and 777-X
Dunno if you have watched it or not but I want them to start pretending it's an episode of West Wing because the Dems in that went hard. I'm tired of the milquetoast responses and typical DNC fair but they also are playing politics and trying what they think will work.
Imagine coming to a text based forum and thinking not reading is a flex.
It's an explicit attempt to troll
"I'm going to say something I know you won't like and pretend not to listen to any response because my goal is to anger you."
Frankly, if I was a mod of this forum, I'd ban [email protected] for trolling. They're not even trying to hide that that is their goal rather than actual discussion.
It's explicitly bad faith.
Yeah, centrists don't arrive at their political opinions by reading.
There are more eloquent ways to concede the argument.
We blame you for him. You understand that, right? In our eyes, he's your guy.
Trying to make leftists feel bad about Trump doesn't work. We believe (And have the fucking receipts) that it is the DNC's (And the Clintons) corruption that is at fault that Trump is President. Again.
The Democratic Party died with Paul Wellstone.
centrists prefer trump over anyone to their left.
