You just defend the worst actions of democrats no matter what they do.

They held out until the election was over. They had the voters behind them on this and naturally betrayed them immediately as soon as they got what they wanted.

Which features?

Don’t threaten them with a good time.

Oh great. Just like with abortion, minimum wage, and cannabis legalization, this is now a Red State Problem Democrats Don’t Have To Care About.

simultaneous votes

two different votes. One guaranteed to fail, since republicans don’t want it. The entire point of having both on one vote is so republicans have to vote for something they otherwise wouldn’t.

They’re not extending health care subsidies. They’re jettisoning them. With your enthusiastic approval.

They knew holding their ground was popular, so they did it until the election, and now they’re abandoning the people who elected them, brazenly, openly, and with your support.

Must be nice to be privileged.

Must be nice to have two parties that perfectly represent everything you’re about.

How were they caving?

They split the bill. One part contained what republicans might vote for if they weren’t just keeping the government closed so there’s no vote to release the Epstein files. The other part was a standalone bill to extend subsidies which democrats know won’t pass.

Yes, it’s caving. Because democrats were only pretending to hold out until after the election. They got the only thing they wanted out of the shutdown and it’s not continuing subsidies for healthcare.

Dude, they just offered to end the shutdown and get nothing out of it.

That’s called caving. But you’re right. They don’t cave at all times about everything. They were absolutely steadfast about selling weapons for genocide.

It’s not calling anything. Democrats just cave. It’s all they do.

It’s not really caving.

It’s nothing but.

And it should be noted that democrats were willing to cave in exchange for a promise from republicans on a vote that, even if it passed the fascist-controlled house, would be vetoed by trump.

Democrats were willing to cave and get nothing like always.

They can cave AND lose?

Don’t try to sell them on the idea.

The economic outlook is so bleak that even people who can take advantage of insider trading are getting out.

Praising a monster with this bullshit does not speak compassion, it speaks weakness.

Weakness requires far too much benefit of the doubt. It’s complicity.

I was about to say i stand corrected but I’m reading that article im struggling to find anything Islamophobic in those quotes.

Your bar for Islamophobia is conveniently high, then.

Let’s downplay his success so we don’t have to move to the left.

When centrists inevitably say “yeah, but that’s new york, he couldn’t have won anywhere else,” remember that these are the same people who were lobbing Islamophobic attacks at him.

You also fabricated that. I don’t agree with that.

And you totally just wanted more context because you think it might make the gestapo look worse.

No. You wanted to pretend that the gestapo were justified.

If seven BLUE states tried, and failed, why do you blame Democrats for the loss?

Good lord, you deliberately misunderstand everything. The states that voted no ON THE NATIONAL LEVEL already had higher minimum wage AT THE STATE LEVEL so they and their constituents didn’t give a shit about anyone else.

In any case, EVERY single state that is still stuck at $7.25 (or lower), is a Red State, while not a single Blue state remains at $7.25.

Which is why it’s never happening at the national level. You got yours. Fuck everyone else.

I can’t stand Sinema, she was a traitor to her party and to America

She didn’t screw over workers hard enough for you. No one ever can.

She was NEVER leading the Democrats in any way - exactly the opposite is true.

Yeah, that’s what I said. She was following the party when she fucked over workers.
