Useless. Time for the Social Democrats to form their own party.
Fucking seriously??? These assholes could finally do something and the roll over. Pieces of shit.
They had no chance of passing it so they’re not even going to protest vote I guess. I can’t come up with any good reason why they’re doing this. They’re kissing T’s ass at the Hague today when he should be there on trial. Maybe they’re just going to publicly fall in line.
But still, even when you go to more politically aware places (like lemmy), you’ll get mocked for suggesting America is rules by a uniparty when it comes to American inperialism. It’s unbelievably fucking stupid.
Profiles In Cowardice
All I’m saying is that we need more Zohrans, in every city.
Looks like there are 212 Democrat reps in the house, which puts it at a large majority which would rather “not cause a fuss” or whatever the fuck excuse they’re trying to bullshit this time.
Useless people. Worthless people.
What exactly do you think the outcome would be if the house successfully initiated an impeachment?
It’s not about not wanting to cause a fuss. It’s just a losing impeachment that people don’t want to attach their names to, probably the weakest attempt so far because so many Democrat presidents have acted in the same way. Precedent isn’t nothing.
“So many democrat presidents have acted in the same way”
One, doubt. Two, you take that entire excuse and shove it waaaay up your ass.
I wasn’t talking about the entirety of Trump’s actions, just the military actions he took without congressional approval which has been essentially every military action in my life regardless of which party was in power - and that’s what this whole round of impeachment talks was about, this time.
Regarding shoving this up my ass, I’m not into butt stuff but feel free to shove anything that strikes your fancy up your own ass if you like.
They are all complicit. The democrats are completely ok with everything Trump does. As long as the make money and the individual stays in office. They do not care about you. The system is broken beyond belief.
war is profit. would you expect any less from these monsters?
Traitors, every last one
128 Democrats join House Republicans to defend fascist dictator
Every politician over 50 besides Bernie needs to be ‘retired’
Can’t state this enough. Reboot our entire government
All that does is make a whole new generation of politicians become attached to their privileges.
Yea, an actually democratic system needs to be implemented first! And we would solve that too via that step, very few democrats would survive if an actual choice were to be given to the people!
Depend how the retirement goes politician of today have nothing to fear we need the cult of luigi to start the luigining
I don’t understand what this comment means. The alternative is to… let them serve until they’re 80-90 years old? We need younger politicians who are personally invested in the future of this country and the planet. And term limits. We need them both.
You’re advocating a reset without a change to the underlying system. Expecting a different outcome is insanity.
Did I say I didn’t want to change the system? But it’s literally impossible to do if we let these old, entrenched politicians stay in power.
Meanwhile, you’re advocating doing nothing
Am I? Please copy/paste that bit.
Don’t be coy, people are pushing for change and all you have to say in response is that the fundamental systems are still in place.
No shit, but your revolution won’t come from sitting around and waiting for it to start.
So that was what I’m advocating, sitting around and waiting? I’d have to ask you again to copy/paste that bit…
You do realize It’s not binary, right?, It’s not a choice between voting for democrats or sitting around waiting.
He should have no privilege for that.
Suddenly 99 JD Vances in the Senate.
You people starting to realize that these ‘Democrats’ are just in there for the money like Republicans are, you need to clean the party
There is a new website tracking whether politicians will go on the record to be against bribery.
I wonder if they will note this?
I hate questions like this. Because for conservatives, taking bribes isn’t an exclusionary issue. They would vote for the literal Antichrist if it meant they could oppress someone.
Sure they might care that their particular conservative representative not take bribes but if that representative took bribes but was also racist, they are going to vote for them.
I am so cynical already that i laughted out loud reading it.
You cant convince me otherwise but that this world is a TV show for the gods!
Hop on Netflix and watch the one season of Kaos, with Jeff Goldbm. it’s pretty great.
Nah
Why people keep thinking the democrats will ever be more than passive bystanders to corruption and greed. They benefit regardless who’s in charge as long as it’s not left of them
It’s funny. When the impeachment attempt was announced, it was roundly condemned by Very Serious Leftists as useless and, in fact, targeting Trump for something that was not actually illegal, and thus more proof of Dem complicity by engaging in ‘pointless’ symbolic action instead of ‘real’ interference.
And now that most Dem reps seem to agree with this position, many of those same Very Serious Leftists regard not supporting the impeachment attempt also as proof of Dem complicity.
