    And also avoiding the fact they were rolling support behind the literal walking corpse of the status quo while people were demanding the status quo change.

    The Democrats have become the party of complicity (good cop) while the Republicans move the agenda to where the government/those in power want it to be (bad cop).

      This is false equivalency in sheep’s clothing

        Then why is it there is always just 1 republican holding up the works whenever they want? Tommy Rubber I’ll the great Traitor from Alafuckintbama held up how many promotions for the US military while the Party of Complicity sat on their hands and cliñutched pearls.

        I am so absolutely tired of the Dems getting steamrolled by another party that holds nobody accountable and passes their policies with impunity…all while the Dems ‘take the high road’.

        Now, it’s too late, and they will play the part of the injured lamb until all their progressive programs are gutted.

        Throw your pop culture phrases in the toilet along with your social security, because that’s gonna go too.

          Bitching that both parties are bad doesn’t solve anything. It’s just demotivates the rest of the public from actually exercising the one power they have: voting.

          Of course, none of this even matters, considering the public have already spoken and they want corpo-facism.

            It’s not a both sides argument, really, when one is absolutely horrible and the only party that has the power to stop their bullshit does nothing but move their agenda to the right in the hopes of converting voters.

            Ranked choice voting and the breakup of the 2 party system which only benefits the American oligarchy is the only way forward.
