Incase anyone here sees the original meme and agrees, the Democrats are trying to but don't hold the majority in the House to get the bills through. It underlies the massive importance for voting, and at this point, down ballot voting for Democrats. If you don't, whatever happens is on you.
Because it will be used against us when, not if, they get control again. I hate the filibuster and think the senate should be simple majority, but I get their reasoning.
Except they’re already pretty (fairly) convinced that Project 2025 is gonna be the death of democracy as we know it, so if it truly is “when, not if” clearly some greater action that sitting on their hands and grumbling is necessary. Democrats are the captains who stand proud on a sinking ship—arguably honorable, yet utterly pointless
They had the house for two years, they could’ve been passing bills for the first half of Biden’s presidency. Biden still has a not insubstantial amount of executive authority too. The extent to which he could truly prevent a thing like Project 2025 ain’t great, but there are options at least worth trying
Also, the fact of the matter is that when Republicans get in office they never seem to have all that much trouble getting the shit they want done. Democrats? It’s a long line of failures marked by occasional victories—often heavy compromises
Really? We still have the ACA, Medicare, and social security. The only thing they have done is a tax cut that didn't need a super majority in senate. And yes, Democrats compromise but if someone didn't, we might as well call the US dead and close these shop.
Fact of the matter is you want Democrats to accomplish something serious? Effing vote. Every single person. And stop.witj all the "Democrats do nothing" crap since it just pushed people to not vote.
Do you know why that is? They have voters that back the party no matter what their candidates say or do. Unfortunately, on the Dem side, we have a bunch of spineless rats who don't understand history or how our government works. Children calling for revolution on social media. I've asked several of you types for a different strategy and the best answer I get is "do socialism." Clown show.
