I would expect politicians to have better ideas than the ineffective shit they have been doing this year so far. Considering that I don’t believe that politicians at the national level are all actually that dumb, it has to be on purpose. There’s certainly DNC politicians who are sincere about wanting avoid fascism, but they aren’t the ones who run the party.
Better ideas get filibustered. They could remove filibustered but since they’ve had 48 or less senate seats since 2013-2015 congress a literal decade ago that also means the GOP could potentially pass laws without a filibuster.
What we need is a strong DNC majority like we had in 2010-2012 which expanded healthcare to tens of millions of people and proposed tax reforms that reduced individual rates to 10% and raised corporate and foreign effective rates to 25% (many companies pay 0%
Instead we just reelected the fucking apeass bastard who keeps cutting taxes for the rich.
And have people learned anything from all this? NO! THEY’RE ACTUALLY GETTING DUMBER AS TIME GOES ON.
Dems had the presidency for four years. They had Congress for two years. With that same amount of power Donald has accomplished everything he wants.
Did you notice those special sessions Abbott just did in Texas?
The US president has the same power. He could have kept Congress in session for four years straight until he got what he wanted by sheer force of will.
Don’t pretend like the DNC aren’t to blame for not getting enough votes. Look at how hard they fumbled the last national election, and how they’re treating Mamdani.
Policy doesn’t matter if you’re not effective at actually getting elected, and by now we’re kinda beyond the point where the fascists can be voted out.

But that assumes he gives a shit.
First of all
Texas house and senate were also solid red.
POTUS can’t keep congress in session because that would require power of the purse which belongs solely to the house.
I JUST SENT YOU A LIST OF THINGS THEY ACCOMPLISHED DESPITE THEIR 50:50 MAJORITY, NOT COUNTING ANY EXECUTIVE ORDERS.

You mean… just being joyful about not being able to afford food didn’t fix your entire life?
I’m shocked.

Nice ad hominem.
