Democrats can do everything 100% perfectly and it’ll still go nowhere because they only have 50 seats in the senate and a minority in the house.
Thinking that they have some magical ability to pass legislation their opposition doesn’t want under those conditions is just s sign that you don’t know much about civics.
What did I say that’s incorrect here? I’m not misrepresenting your position in any way.
You’re content to give Democrats credit for their words. I am not. I need to see more than broken promises. I need to see actual work toward making these changes a reality, not another pie-in-the-sky speech before they take off for another two months of vacation.
Further, it is possible to make things happen if they actually use the power they have. Biden, as president, has the power to keep Congress in session until they do what he wants. The House has the ability to hold up military funding until they get what they want. The Senate can make people actually have to stand and filibuster instead of caving at the threat of it.
Democrats do none of these things. They take no for an answer and then pretend they did their job by simply giving a speech.
Ruling is hard, but that it’s hard is no excuse for doing nothing.
I love that it’s just a proposal and you’re already making excuses.
But sure, Democrats should just… make excuses, because it’s hard to do the actual work.
Awesome stance you got there.

That’s exactly what I said.
They should do nothing. Because it’s hard.
I’m agreeing with you.
You clearly have no intention of a good faith discussion, go away. No one needs your negativity.

Yeah I’m not willing to believe you will vote for a Democrat even if they somehow manage to pull off what amounts to a miracle
Unless they promised to do something bad. You’d seize that opportunity instantly, the one trick pony you are.
