They're not evil and old like Trump They're just old and unable to fight a post-truth populist like Trump
They don't understand how important it is to never show capitulation
Do not give them excuses. They were bought out at the very least. They held on this long knowing why, they gave up for probably a monetary reason. Maybe threats, because he's the mob. Threats are the only reason I will accept.
I have seen no evidence for your assertion about monetary compensation.
You're basing your beliefs on tribalistic other-hating, a very post truth thing to do.
Do better. Show evidence.
"Show evidence" is a crap debating technique.
You made this evidence-free assertion in the very same post. Grow up.
You're basing your beliefs on tribalism to justify their actions.
Do better. Show evidence.
They're not confused, they're not cowards, they know what will happen, they are complicit.
If your actions are indistinguishable from evil, you are evil.
There is no way these people don't know how many lives they're going to ruin and end with this vote. There is no way they actually believe they're going to get the ACA tax credits from the political party that let the government shut down over the issue. Functionally evil is the same as evil.
they are capitalists. they are career politicians. they. are. evil. anyone who ever says “the dems and reps are different” is a documented dumbass. this is proof that all parties are effectively right wing.
Of course they're both right wing, but that doesn't make them the same. Angela Merkel and Adolf Hitler were both rightwing chancellors of Germany. It DOES NOT make them the same.
8 crap senators who aren't standing in 2026 capitulated and gave in to the republicans. The rest were standing firm. If there were just a few more dems they could have still stood firm.
i’ll have more faith when the 8 change parties
Actually, it turns out 1 is independent and another is already suspended or something.
Anyway, yes, but they can do so much more damage from within, so I think they won't.
If you vote to enable fascism, you are yourself a fascist, regardless of what color arm band you choose to wear.
