    I’m aware.

    • I definitely understand the caution you're recommending. You lay out a logical and reasonable argument.


      However, I'm so tired of seeing people act outrageously bad, then complain when they're held accountable. This goes far beyond politics for me.
      I gotta little bit of smoke and a whole lotta wine...

        I still think this is a bad look for the Dems even if I 100% agree with the sentiment behind it.
        Yep.

          Like handy said, I don’t know what the options are. Think of how fast the Dems removed Al without anything nearly as outrageous as what MJt is caught saying.

          they will equate aoc with mjt because so much of their base is nuts. They worship guns and think healthcare is a joke. They didn’t care when kids were shot up in school (oh wait that was a hoax). Aoc wants people to be able to eat and our kids to have breathable air

            Good god...that started out ok but devolved fast. It is hard to sound contrite when you blame the media, Democrats and Big Tech. If Big Tech had actually censored her she wouldn't be in trouble since no one would know about what she said. She needs a PR staff stat...

            Pelosi should tank the vote.

              Are you sure because you keep saying otherwise. No one seems to be advocating from kicking her out of Congress.

                Kepler saying that Democrats telling a strongly GOP-held part of Georgia that their representative isn’t worthy of committee assignments is not doing anything “for the people”, like he points out in the post I was replying to. Quite the opposite. I’m aware no one is arguing she should be kicked out of Congress.

                  And that is the other problem. Franken resigned from the Senate for literally nothing (mediocre accusations with no proof) and Katie Hill stepped down because she had sex with a staffer and was revenge porned. It seems these days only one side actually faces consequences for their actions. At what point are we allowed to hold the GOP to account beyond just the ballot box? It isnt like the Dems are getting rewarded for doing the right thing so why keep trying to play the game with one hand tied behind your back?

                    No he seems to be advocating that the needs of the many (everyone outside that pocket of GA) outweigh the needs of the few. (her voters) Not saying I agree but there is logic behind such an idea.

                    • The Democrats shouldn't be doing anything about her. If the GOP doesn't want to do anything about her fix the security at the Capitol. Put them on alert about the clowns. Let her be on her committee's and use her idiocy to campaign the GOP out of their seats.

                      This all will backfire. It always has. It always does.

                        They tried fixing security and MTG, Crazy Eyes and others ignored it. The Crazies are holding the rest of Congress hostage and the GOP is enabling them because they are spineless trolls.

                          Because that’s how it’s done? If the GOP keeps showing they’re the party of Q, surely the Hovey’s, Swansong’s, and Drew’s of the world will keep voting D at least at the presidential level? Is that not reward enough, having Hovey on your side?

                            They can vote for whoever they want. Doesn't mean the Congress needs to put them in any positions where they might have some influence on committee decisions.
                            What kind of cheese are you planning to put on top?

                              I didn’t say I was unable to see his logic...I just think mine is way better in this case.

                                I don’t know that we do. Voting against Dump doesn’t mean it translates to much else. Plenty of dump voters still think Tom tillis and tuberville are Aok
