People are storming the streets and town halls, Elon is dissolving the whole country and Trump is busy tending Putin’s toes. Where the fuck are the democrats in all this crisis? It feels AOC is doing all the heavylifting while all the rest of them smug bunch are just watching with “told ya dis was gunn happen” drawn on their face.

Please tell me my ignorant ass is just blatantly wrong because I ain’t getting any news.

    I’m not sure why this is directed solely towards democrats. They’re not the only ones affected by the change towards dictatorship.

    -the better question is:

    What is ANYONE doing to help?

      If you want the answer to your question, just go read. A lot of people are doing a lot already. It’s just not Washington Democrats.

      But if you want to know why we should be targeting the Democrats, it’s because we know what the Republicans in Washington were able to do when Obama was president and when Biden was present. The Dems have power, but they are pretending that they don’t.

      And we the people are calling out to these Democrats and telling them hey, if you want the country to survive, you need to level up. And if you don’t, and the country does somehow survive anyway, we will make sure to throw you to the curb as soon as we can. But we really do need your help now because the situation is s***.

        Exactly. Republicans don’t have a filibuster proof super majority in the Senate so Dems could filibuster the Senate to death to block Trump appointments from being voted on like Republicans did to Dems, but no, rich white liberals aren’t hurt by Trump’s fascism so they don’t care
