Would it be better If I put it in a meme that they were actually doing shit?
Well I won't say they're not doing anything. It's their job, obviously they're playing defense to Republican insanity. And re-evaluating what they've been doing thus far is not a bad thing to be doing by any means if they have any hope of winning next time around. But do you genuinely think they're doing enough to protect their constituency? The underprivileged masses that entrusted their valuable vote to them?
DEIA initiatives are being suspended, the military is posted up on the border, undocumented abuelitas are getting ICE'd and America has affirmed its role as a rogue element to its European allies by implying its willingness to annex Greenland. That's just the first week of what the opposition has cooked up. Are you seeing resistance in equal amount?
Hey, if you have a fix, let them know! Because until you know how things work so well as to be able to legally undermine trump’s grifting and unconstitutional bullshit- maybe keep the accusations to a minimum.
If I hire a lawyer to represent me in court and they ask me "Alright chief, got any idea how we're gonna get you out of this mess?", I probably hired a shitty layer, right? I'm not accusing anyone of anything, I'm merely stating that I'm not seeing much being done by them in response to trump doing the trump things he said he'd do a year or so ago.
But that’s not what is happening here. So, maybe try a different point?
You're being intentionally obtuse. That's exactly what you suggested.
And that’s not exactly what you provided. So if you have a fix, let them know. You clearly have it all figured out, right? If they are doting over… tuna sandwiches like everyone believes… maybe you can help them!
Get at it.
OK bud. Keep up the same energy when trump sends out his own flavor of the SS on door-knocking missions in your neighborhood.
When it happens, it won't be because Democrats didn't do fucking shit, it's just that there weren't enough good suggestions from the voter-base which has a fraction of the information that elected officials have, right? When it happens, it'll be because leftists complained about tuna sandwiches, right? When it happens, it'll have nothing to do with Democrats continuously course-correcting to the right on every issue in elections, whenever the chance is afforded to them, right? When it happens, it won't be because voters demanded more of them than just being a counter-movement to Republicans, right?
Good luck and stay safe.
