Is there any set of circumstances where dems would ever take meaningful, organized action against The Party?

Today we're blaming Democrats for being blocked by Republicans?

It's so funny, every election cycle of my existence on this planet has been "republican gets elected, does whatever they want, democrat gets elected, it's soooo hard to pass laws :(", repeat ad nauseum. I have this uncanny ability known as "pattern recognition".

Yup. Maintaining the status quo is easier than changing it. Even the tiny little bit Democrats try to change.

Dont you libs hate Trump so much because he did some bad things? Did he not do things? Was it just the status quo you're so mad about?

I remember when Biden first got in and Libs were saying he was a smol bean and us Chad leftists were pointing this out about Trump I saw several Libs saying "well to be honest Trump really didn't achieve THAT MUCH while in office."

Okay so you're admitting you just didn't like the guy cuz he was a uncivil dang cheeto?

they don't "try to change", they expand on conservative policies while pretending that doing good things is impossible. They are controlled opposition. I'm tired of having this conversation every 4 years.

Just look at Israel. The Democratic party Hulked the fuck out, closed ranks, and absolutely shattered any and all opposition to the genocide. They are more than capable of exercising massive political power but for some reason they only ever do it for terrible things and never for "that great thing that they weawwy weawwy want if it wasn't for those mean ol' Republicans."

Why was Trump able to make so many changes? Was it because he was a better statesman than Biden?

The only people believing that Trump is actually a master of deal making is the Republicans and Blue no matter who peeps.

Reminds me of how people keep going on about the charisma of Hitler.

They had a Congressional majority for two years LIB

Since you evidently don't understand how the government works, both Congress and the Senate have to pass a bill for it to become law. The Senate is intentionally designed to give conservatives more power.

I was going to vote for Biden but now I won't because you acted with such brutal incivility. This is the most important election of our lives; democracy itself is on the ballot and you are turning people away from the polls before they've even opened. You are handing Trump the keys to the White House; you are ushering in the dark tide of fascism. Enjoy the next election, you have made it our last.
