As well they should be. It’s not the individual cabinet member, or the voting for shitty right-wing immigration laws, or giving Trump cover with his budget bill. It’s all this put together. Schumer and ilk don’t give two shits about standing up for what’s right. They want to coast to those cushy post-election jobs. If the cost to getting progressives into office is these shitheads get cushy lobbying jobs, I’m fine with that, as long as the Progressives turn away from the cashola and represent us while thumbing Trump and the Republicans in the eyes…hard.
According to a February Quinnipiac poll, about half disapprove of how Democrats in Congress are handling their job, compared with about 4 in 10 who approve.
How can even 4 in 10 approve? What is there to approve of?
There is no “doing their jobs well” or "doing their jobs poorly " - most of the Democrats in Congress aren’t doing their jobs at all.
I talked to one person and she now disapproves, but it was just that Schummer’s argument about shutdown was convincing to her.
My response basically was that Republicans are already shutting the government, and if they wanted a total shutdown they wouldn’t present any bill.
There was a clean CR bill to fund government for a month they could pass it and negotiate a proper bill.
If they would shut down, like in 2019 it would be on trump as he is in the office, and back then it took almost 30 days before Republicans caved. Shutdown would motivate more people going out on the streets IMO.
Now after Schummer and 9 other voted they codified the changes and even courts won’t be able to block those.
Suburban liberals. They’re basically Republicans but with a guilty conscience.
King wrote this in the 1960s, but it applies equally to fascism today
I must confess that over the past few years I have been gravely disappointed with the white moderate. I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro’s great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen’s Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to ‘order’ than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice
Hey, they had pingpong paddles, what more do you want ?
“They should absolutely be worried about holding onto power, because there’s a real energy right now against them,” Paco Fabián, deputy director of Our Revolution, a grassroots group allied with independent Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, said of Democratic incumbents. “And as soon as somebody figures out how to harness it, they’re going to be in deep trouble.”
Let’s do this!
Democrats licking boots puts them on shaky ground. FTFY.
Controlled opposition and an apathetic population be like that when the crises strikes.
Schumer is a worthless sack of runny shit
This is what happens when you have a two-party system and both parties are right wing.
