People just want to slam the Dems. Especially while Trump is burning the Constitution. Y'know... priorities.

They’ve been very clear about why they are kicking Hogg though. It’s a party that puts a high value on having every 80 year old who’s been in office since 1990 get a turn chairing a big important committee before they die.

It's because we already know Trump is horrific and evil and he likes it. We criticize the Dems because we'd like the opposition party to do some, you know, oppositioning.

They *are* opposing Trump within the confines of the law. And that's the problem: Trump doesn't give a shit about laws. So, people on the left fall for the false narrative, then attack their own. Right now some on the left are even attacking Gavin Newsom. Blue MAGA does, indeed, exist, unfortunately

Not a single Dem opposed the nomination of RFK Jr or Dr. Oz. They could have blocked several bills and didn't. No, the Dems are not doing opposition.

You can pick and choose as many votes as you want to push your narrative; I could do the same, but it's pointless. The fact is that 65% of whites ad 45% of Latinos voted for this because y'all don't understand what it means to lose your freedom. We Blacks know. That's why we warned y'all. But FAFO🤷🏾

Comparing anyone who didn't vote Blue no matter what to Trump voters is a BlueMaga thing. You are doing the thing you accuse other people of doing. If you don't think a bunch of black people also wish the Dems would step up, I don't know what to tell you, but you're not paying attention.

It's wild to me that you think this/they are the best we can do. You claim to support real action, but refuse to hold people who have the elected power to produce such action accountable. I expect more from them than capitulation.

I appreciate you... and I'm, admittedly, fearful of what's coming. Trump is trying to do everything he can to get us Blacks out on the street. We're not taking the bait... but this shit is hard. Really, really hard... especially when we have to battle our own side to get them to focus. So exhausting

I'd recommend reading what I actually said before hitting "reply." I didn't say they voted for him. I said they didn't oppose their nomination, which is true. Both were unanimously consented to by the entire Senate.

I think some on the left want Democrats to make more speeches and engage in verbal jousts during Congressional hearings. They want symbols rather than substance.

Dems are putting things on record for the benefit of history. They are trying to educate the public. Tell me what Democrats can do that is "of substance." They won't get a bill of impeachment out of committee. Republicans won't vote for bills which constrain Trump.

That's what I'm picking up. They all jumped for joy when Booker did his "filibuster". It was important, but it was ultimately theater. The real fight is in the courts... while we still have them.

Nonsense. Are voters children? No. The problem is white, Latino, and Asian people have no idea what it means to lose their freedom. We Blacks do. We know what was won can be taken away. It's suffocating. I've felt it every damned day of my life. Hopefully, y'all won't be made to understand, too

TF are you even talking about? You can blame the Dems if you want to, but it's the People. The "snafu" is that 65% of white people voted for Trump. And 45% of Latinos did the same. We Blacks warned y'all, but you're just too comfortable to understand what it means to lose your freedom. FAFO. Again.
