I swear I hear this regardless of how close we are to the next presidential election. Can we maybe focus on some of the other races on the ballot? I would love if we could get a Congress that was actually able to make good things happen, instead of trying very hard to do nothing so bad things don't happen.

Congress might also have been able to get more done if there was a filibuster-proof majority for more than several months in the last several decades.

I do vote for the most progressive person available in the primaries tho.

The fact that we even need a filibuster proof majority to get anything done is yet another glaring example of how fucked we are.
