      Agreed.

      It always warms my heart to hear how hard it was for Democrats to actually wield power when they had it, especially when Trump is giving a master class on the possibilities. It reminds me of all those times they asked us to empathize with how hard it is to legislate, conveniently, whenever we asked them to do something about the widespread impoverishment of people and the increasing cost-prohibitive pricing of food staples.

      They always, always lean on excuses.

        Yeah when was the last time you heard the excuse that “we just have to keep arming Israel because of geopolitical alliances?” They sure dropped that one quickly before morphing into blaming individuals for not further supporting it at the ballot box. No criticism for the 15 months of this under Biden. No criticism of the actual fucking Democratic candidates who chose to support this in their campaigns leading up to their entirely predictable losses.

        It’s just excuse and scapegoat after excuse and scapegoat while they let the world burn around them because it’s good for their polling numbers in the next election.

          If you look in this thread you’ll find one saying exactly that.

          of course Biden couldn’t stop, they’re our biggest ally/if we stopped arming them their neighbors who Isreal keeps provoking and attacking would invade

    Yes, Netenyahus arse was borderline bruised from the tongue “lashing” Biden gave him on a daily basis. And the dems shutting any progressive or muslim voice out of the party, and not allowing anyone of Palestinian descent into the convention was so brave of Biden. A profile of courage.

      Thank God people voted against ‘Genocide Joe’! Those Palestinian kids must be so grateful!

      Bibi stalled because he knew if Trump won he could cleanse both Gaza and the WB.

      Which he is, in spite of all the ‘progressive rage’ that children mutter under their breath.

              This person is doing exactly what that mother of the child who died of measles did and that’s find whatever scapegoat they possibly can to blame things on because the alternative means acknowledging that they’re a monster and that’s too uncomfortable.

                With the exception that I was telling everyone to get vaccinated, that the anti-vaxers were wrong and were killing their kids.

                The herd stupidity failed and all our kids died.
