Right. Democrats putting up a fight. Sure.
lol yeah what the hell is that headline? Some democrats are already turning against the trans community 🙄
Please explain this to me, I keep seeing comments like this but haven’t seen any related article etc.
2-3 democrats shortly after the election made public comments and/or internet posts that were either anti or dismissive of trans people. Couldn’t tell you the names at this point but I googled the phrase “democrats turn on trans” and got enough hits to read more about it
Thanks!
They’re going to really show Trump how unfair he is being, appeal to his better nature, and make him feel bad so he changes his ways. They may even point out how he’s not following the rules as they’re normally interpreted. For sure it will work this time. There’s no way he can survive this.
Woah, woah, woah! They’re also going to point out how he’s not following norms…
Guess the gloves are coming off, god damn…
what better nature? He ain’t got one
Please, please don’t make people use the sarcasm /s symbol here. That garbage can stay on reddit.
Well they lost majority so fat chances.
They are going to TP his chair.
Someone’s going to sneak a fart bag on his chair right before he sits down, and everyone will laugh at him!
Classic democrat pranksters!
They won’t even fight to give their base basic requests like, please stop using our votes to kill innocent people.
Fuck off if you think Israel was a partisan issue in the recent election.
Bullshit
On any GOP-only legislation, there is “going to be enormous pressure” on Republican centrists to break away, said Rep. Joe Morelle (D-N.Y.)
Dudes living in a dream world.
This reeks from industrial levels of Copeium completely untethered to the new reality which faces the 119th Congress, when The Supreme Court is still controlled by Republicans, both houses are controlled by Republicans and Donald Trump is once again the President. This is publishing for the sake of publishing, it should not be construed as anything you can hang your hat on.
To be fair, they controlled both the House and the Senate in 2016, too. They didn’t have the courts, yet, but they soon did. And they still barely agreed on anything.
Yeah, the GOP is weird because they are all on the same page in terms of talking points (disinformation) and voter suppression, but once they get in power none of them can agree, and none of them take it seriously.
Because you have two primary camps there right now - the corpocratic old guard and the nationalistic new guard. The nationalists were never actually supposed to have power, they were just meant to be an easily manipulable voter base. It’s not even the first time they’ve had an ‘inmates running the asylum’ situation because the exact same thing happened with racists when they tried the Southern Strategy.
I think we also got a taste of this with the Tea Party movement on the Right. They wanted to break everything and cared very little about actually governing. It’s about hurting people and sowing bad faith discourse.
It’s a much different GOP this time around. Before Trump was the new guy. The Outsider. This time he is the party. This time everyone has to kiss his ring and owes their entire power base to him.
This time they have to decide who among them will take his mantle in 2028. Whoever it is needs to be ready in 2027, so the hunger games are starting sooner than you think.
Sure Jan
“We really, really mean it this time.”
Doubt. The House isn’t the Senate, the minority can’t do shit.
The senate minority cant do shit either. The senate filibuster rules are enforced by the parliamentarian, who the vice president can overrule. Doesn’t even need to abolish filibuster

I hope they all use the men’s room. All of them.
Oh bless their hearts, they think they hold power.
Awesome, glad you decided to do your job after throwing the fight
Wishful fucking thinking.
