Wanna go back over the last 30+ years of Democrats helping Republicans pass their evil shit? I’m down. I’d also love to throw in how many of these turncoats the party protected from primaries, while the party actively primaried their progressives.
There’s no “us” here. You’re a liberal. I’m a leftist. Don’t go convincing yourself you’re not on the right.
There was already a significant enough faction of republicans opposing that it required democrats to pass each of these, which was what you asked for and what you got. And now, as expected, you’ve got plenty of excuses.
Everyone mark this astroturf bot in your apps. We got another liberal here pretending to be a pragmatic leftist with a DNC dick in their mouth.
Nope, I looked up the vote numbers by party. Both federal bills outside of the crypto required no Democrats support. It’s just reported that way in those articles because they want to point out that their are shit Democrats.
The North Carolina budget I know nothing about, what they spend money on in their state really has nothing to do with the federal governments agenda.
Do you see at the top where it says “senate”? Do you understand the difference between the house and senate? Do you not understand that bills need to pass BOTH?

You have no idea what I believe in, you just don’t like that I pointed out that the Democrats can’t block any of this without Republican support.
How many more links would you like to prove you wrong? What’s the number? Set the goalpost, and I’ll reach it.

Also for your breakdown:
Lake Riley act Democrats couldn’t have blocked
The North Carolina budget (not federal) has a Republican Senate and Congress as well, can’t verify what the party line votes even were
crypto bill: Democrats helped pass bill to put “guardrails” on crypto currencys.
Gender affirming care, Democrats couldnt have blocked
So what we see from your examples is that Democrats are worried about Crypto as much as Republicans are.
There was already a significant enough faction of republicans opposing that it required democrats to pass each of these, which was what you asked for and what you got. And now, as expected, you’ve got plenty of excuses.

For example 52 Republican senators voted for the Laken Riley Act. - that means it is impossible to block
Anti-trans NDAA: house republicans were 20 votes short of a majority.
Laken Riley act: house republicans were 44 votes short of a majority senate republicans 11 votes short.
March ‘25 spending bill: senate republicans 8 votes short.
And why do you think Democrats stopping a budget in North Carolina has anything to do with stopping Trump.
Do you see at the top where it says “senate”? Do you understand the difference between the house and senate? Do you not understand that bills need to pass BOTH?
Also there were 217 votes by Senate Republicans for it, and there are only 212 democrats in the house, so once again, impossible
HOUSE Republicans needed 218 to pass it.
Yes, remember when you gave me the information to look up the Senate? How would I know to fact check a link you didn’t send
Wrong link, but I specifically called out the house.
