I should give Democrats credit for all the times they held power and still didn’t do jack shit about the VRA except wring their hands and pretend to be powerless to stop the judicial repeal of it. (2006, 2013, 2021, etc. etc. etc.)
After all. Actually doing stuff requires effort, and it’s unreasonable of me to expect the opposition party to actually oppose things.
Democrats: Pass landmark legislation to give minorities political power, eventually lose power
Republicans: Gain power, strip minorities of political power
You: “Why aren’t the Democrats doing more?”
Every time the GOP burns the house down, they’re politelt excused and Democrats get blamed for not bringing enough water. Explain exactly why you think the Democratic Party wanted the VRA to die.
Democrats have never made a single significant improvement that wasn’t under explicit threat of violence from the organized masses, and even then only after dragging their feet and heavily negotiating it down.
Off the top of my head ,Obamacare, green energy investments, gay marriage, ending non-competes, antitrust, not ending lifesaving aid to the global south are all pretty neat.
Do you remember the armed militias organizing so Adam and Steve could get married? I don’t. IG there were a lot of guns at the last Buck-and-Buck party I went to, but it was a hick town so…
As an outsider, I feel like while democrats have done many things that you might be vocal about, the biggest factor of deteriorating quality of life wasn’t sufficiently addressed.
You’re right.

That isn’t anything close to what I said.
But okay. If it makes you feel better. 🤟😎
Cool beans bud, great talk. 🤡
This is the highest of liberal thought. No retorts, just acting smug.
I know, right? Ya ask the kid to defend a stupid assertion and ya get an emoji dismissal. Pretty weak sauce!
