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?
And it’s not about winning. It’s about encouraging people to pull their heads out of their ass, and recognize that we are fighting two fascist parties. Not just the GOP.

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.
Vacancies made it less as I discussed in the other comment, but I think you can win this discussion for the gender affirming care one.
The majority of Republicans voted for it, but they wouldn’t have toppled 217
And it’s not about winning. It’s about encouraging people to pull their heads out of their ass, and recognize that we are fighting two fascist parties. Not just the GOP.
And again, those vacancies are the fault of the Dems.
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.

Which I just put elsewhere: 217 Republican votes. (Impossible block, even if the Democrats all hated it which clearly they didn’t)
It needed 218 to pass with a majority.
