Are you sure he’s far enough to the right for the democratic party to not work to kill his campaign?

In the democratic primaries?

They will get no concessions, because Republicans do not care if the Federal government shuts down.

A shutdown is preferable to expediting this and giving republicans an earlier opportunity to move on to other, worse legislation. Thought democrats were about harm reduction. Guess that was just a lie to get people to vote for their pro-genocide candidates.

If they didn’t have people to their left to stand against, it would be a tautology.

Then make them waste one of their uses of reconciliation. They only get three per year.

But these are democrats and they will preemptively back down.

Well, yes, although that sounds like asking people to safely dispose of their lit cigarette butts when the forest fire is raging.

We need firefighters. We didn’t have the option to elect any.

Are Democrats corporate stooges and feckless cowards? Yeah most of them.

And from a functional standpoint, that means no meaningful opposition.

The good news is that we now have one party interested in defunding the police.

The bad news is that they’re a party of criminals who have a vested interest in doing so.

The McDonald’s fries thing was also amusing when he learned “how fries were made” and that they put them in a basket and not scoop them out by hand lol.

They could have let him learn that the hard way, but no.

They don’t need the democrats to vote yes

Filibuster. Make it go to reconciliation. Keep proposing amendments to gum up the works.

Now dismiss this like you dismiss anything that isn’t “do whatever republicans want.”

Of course they do. centrists agree with republicans that people who protest against genocide should be retaliated against.

centrists agree with republicans on a lot of shit.

There’s probably stuff they could do, but not the filibuster. I mean, they could use the filibuster on every other thing in the senate

They can use it right now.

I’m definitely not interested in making excuses for them.

So stop.

They’re denying foreign nationals due process. When the time comes, they can just call you a foreign national. What are you gonna do, prove it in court without due process?

He’s running for preordained 2028 presidential nominee.

Always nothing democrats can do.

elon’s already wanting to build musklandia in texas.

But they’re not doing it now. Which means that democrats should be filibustering.

Oh, are republicans using reconciliation? Because it’s my understanding that reconciliation involves a joint session, which isn’t happening right now.

It’s not right to say that all of his supporters are racists

Yes it is.

Already? This is a pattern of behavior.
