I couldn’t disagree anymore strongly with your post. Not that I don’t support the two things you mention but for me the important thing right now is keeping the republicans out of power. There can be no sacred cows.

I dont mean this in a nasty way but do you not think there is a strong threat of us losing democracy right now? Once the horse is out of the barn there is not much we can do either.

Do you ever think we’ll forget you voted for Susan Collins? And you have the audacity to claim you are about keeping Republicans out of power? And then questioning the rest of us about saving democracy? Shut the fuck up, seriously. No one believes your stupid shtick you have going. Saying “we” like you’re a Democrat, lol.

Susan Collins is part of the solution not part of the problem. She should leave the Republican Party at this point.

No sacred cows, except Susan Collins, who clearly has no intention of leaving the GOP. Why would she? People like you vote for her anyways. Voting for her and telling her “We really wish you’d be a Democrat!” is like handing an alcoholic a beer and saying “Christ, I wish you’d stay sober!”

What "solution" has your cuddlebunny Suzie ever provided in her god knows how many years in office now?

Mitchie ever give her her healthcare bill he "iron-clad promised" her in return for her vote on tax cuts?

Nah, didn't think so.

Manchin wouldn't matter as much if people like you had voted for Giddeon instead of Sue

Bingo.

Yet he has the nerve to sit and lecture everyone else about what they should do. And the audacity to suggest Dems should start embracing cutting off women’s rights - but voting for Susan is also an answer.

Truly one of the dumbest things I’ve ever heard

She worked hard trying to broker a compromise on the Jan 6th commission. What good would Gideon have done on that? If Gideon won it would save Harris a bit of work on occasion but wouldn’t change the dynamics. Sinema and Manchin would still have all the power.

As awful as the Republican Party is right now there is significant value having Susan, Murkowski, Romney, Mejjier, and Kinzinger in office. If things go horribly wrong in 2022 perhaps they will save us in 2024.

Oh, bull****. At any rate, did she succeed? No? I asked you, what has she accomplished.

Sorry, you don't get trophies for "trying hard".

Doing the bare minimum for what’s right.

susan is a trash pile like the rest of them, preening herself on cameras while slobbering over beer boy

Senate Majority Leader Schumer is infinitely better than Senate Majority Leader McConnell. That's what good he is.

Is it really though when it is still nothing that gets passed? I get in theory he's better and in practice he'd likely be better...but when the Dem majority still can't get anything done because of people like Manchin...it's a moot point as to who is "in charge."

It matters cause of the committee control etc. I am as frustrated as you are but ultimately it is better.

On big items, yes.

But there are judicial appointments, ambassadors, cabinet members, etc. How many of those would still be empty or having acting directors if the GOP still had control?

I do get that and yes it does matter so on that I concede. This shit is just so frustrating.

Susan Collins screwed up the Supreme Court for a generation so no offense but she can fuck off and die. (along with anyone else who helped Mitch ram through justices) She has never stood in the way of Mitch and his agenda and she didn't stand in the way off Trump very often either. She is a moderate like I am a Communist and she is an example of everything that is wrong with the GOP whether you like it or not. She isn't doing what is right, she is doing what keeps her in her position. She sold out women and minorities (and democracy since she could give two fucks if people can vote) and did so on live TV so she could show off her new haircut. Even in the best light...she is a "Good Little German" hemming and hawing and looking the other way as the rest of her party rapes Democracy like a woman at a Kavanaugh Kegger.

You are the perfect example of why representation doesn't work...everyone in Congress sucks except the people who represent me.

No it isn't. If Mitch had control we would have 12 committees now investigating Hunter Biden, ANTIFA and election fraud. There would have been no COVID relief and zero chance at infrastructure. Biden would be a guaranteed 1 termer even amongst the optimists.
