It's like 2017 all over again. No matter what happens the GOP has created a massive opening for Democrats, who must be on offense and drive the point home.
It's time Democrats embraced universal healthcare. Of course they'll need to dummy it down for the red states and call it free healthcare. Or, even better, they should call it anti-woke healthcare. That will get it passed.
I’d actually be really good with cutting healthcare, benefits, veterans benefits, Medicaid, medicare, etc. for everyone of those Maga assholes who voted for this shit. This is what they voted for, this is what they wanted. They need to fucking suffer for it. I have absolutely zero sympathy, empathy, compassion, or anything else for these vile, evilcreatures that would vote for this piece of shit.
Exactly. Magacons caused this to happen and we who are not the billionaire elite will feel the pain. Magacons are the true “deep state”; they’re in a deep state of denial.
I just returned from our local Barnes & Noble where a local non-profit had five developmentally disabled people working cleaning the coffee shop and other areas of the store. This, I believe, is one of the activities targeted by lunatic Republicans for either elimination or "work-testing" Medicaid. Going to so called "Christians" and asking for prayers to successfully remove help from needy people is typical of the hypocrisy of the Republican party.
They reap what they sow, but the ignorance of Repugnicans who don't realize their voters are the people they will hurt the most is breathtaking. All for a small segment of the population who need another tax cut like I need another hole in my head.
American fascists hide behind the long held belief in America that the only true fascism is defined by genocide and anything short of that means we aren't fascists yet. Of course, American fascists have learned from history that overt genocide has a bad rep and the gradual elimination of undesirables through attrition accelerated by poor health care is the method of choice. Private rationed health care gives them what they need to decide on who deserves to live where universal health care might interfere with that goal.
The press indulges the right by accepting the right's policies explaining why cruelty is necessary without mentioning the cruelty. When the press quotes a liar without any background, they can claim they are the liar's victim's just like we are. 2 stupid beliefs. 1 Senators will gladly sacrifice their elected position on principle. 2 Wealthy news people will gladly sacrifice their privileged lives of being close to power based on principle. Funny how individuals are reluctant to be the lone inspiration gambling on the courage of those who have yet to appear brave will grow some balls and help. Stop waiting for Jesus liberals!
I’m afraid at this point there aren’t enough democrats with the will or ability to fight this. All or most of our so called heavy hitters are absentee. Most have laid down and Trump has walked over them. If they are allowed to move forward with this it will be the end of the Democratic Party.
We badly need new Democratic leadership .... NEW, young Democrats who have the guts to hammer on what our values are, what we will do, and what the GOP is doing in destroying the government, department by department. If they cut Medicaid, Medicare, and Social Security, many seniors will be eating cat food. They need to appeal to the morality of building our society without tearing it down.
Absolutely. We need to do what the right wing does and how they keep everyone in line. Threaten these people with a primary defeat. If they aren’t going to do anything get the fuck out of the way. We better get our game on quickly.
I agree. There has to be a way to get rid of the old Democrats like Pelosi who are holding back the younger more progressive Democrats in the House. I know Pelosi has been primaried in her district but her opponent got no traction. We need young people like AOC who are not afraid to take on an incumbent and win.
You are spot on Donna and Teresa. The Dems need more AOCs and less Pelosi’s. They also need to stay in lock-step and DO NOT work with the GOP! The only way to stop this madness is to take back the House and Senate and hope to hell the judges rule against this administration in every lawsuit filed.
We're under a coup now and people better get off their rear-ends now, and that includes Repubs and Dems. It will only get worse with the orange nazi controlling all 3 branches of government.
The Dems in the House and Senate need to sit in PEACEFULLY at the entrance of the Treasury department and any place the doge tries to violate. Get arrested!! Get bailed out and come back stronger the next day. Rinse and repeat. I’m looking at you Jaime Harrison & Chuck Schumer. It’s called Theater.
Ohh, btw, Michael please continue smacking down the argumentative maga clowns:
1. You always are initially kind and give the callers time to make their points. You still patiently note their lies and debunk them. When they get stupid you aggressively do not tolerate the bs. 😊❤️😊
I just heard the comment from Greene that Federal employees are not worthy of jobs that their federal jobs are really not jobs and that they are taking our tax money. Well, they work and get a paycheck to do work, pay taxes on that income and they purchase things like groceries, housing, cars, etc and they all includes taxes
I’m thinking about how to convert Reasonable people who voted for Trump. Wasting time on “he’s killing democracy” is true enough but too abstract for the average Joe. MAGALand needs to feel the pain and see the actual damage, the patterns, the folly for themselves.
Trump will truly hurt MAGAland, then they might consider leaving the cult.
This is forcing states who choose compassion to decide if they can still afford it without federal funding and meeting the Trump fascist goal of ridding America of those deemed useless or undesirable and putting all the responsibility on the states so Trump can claim clean hands in this slow motion classocide. Nothing is so diabolical that the right won't attempt it. Nothing works better to divide America as much as some poor person getting something they don't deserve which is what is behind efforts to means test SS and create a conflict. Sooner or later the outrage fades if we are next in line on the chopping block. They will use whatever horror they have created in a blue state to blame that state while the press nods vacantly.

The Dems in the House need to unite and vote NO for this Republican budget. No more saving Johnson when House Republicans won't support the bill.
I’d actually be really good with cutting healthcare, benefits, veterans benefits, Medicaid, medicare, etc. for everyone of those Maga assholes who voted for this shit. This is what they voted for, this is what they wanted. They need to fucking suffer for it. I have absolutely zero sympathy, empathy, compassion, or anything else for these vile, evilcreatures that would vote for this piece of shit.
The only problem is the voters like me who voted for sanity and to save democracy will suffer from the cuts in services as well.
I know. I just wish it cut be targeted to those morons.
Exactly. Magacons caused this to happen and we who are not the billionaire elite will feel the pain. Magacons are the true “deep state”; they’re in a deep state of denial.
I agree Kate: they should cut the MAGA trump voters who voted for this and leave the rest of alone.

See the republican town hall circuses? If possible I’d love to see Democratic counter town halls in those districts.
They will go down in history with Ghengis Kahn, Pol Pot, Hitler, Stalin.

Mike is the least religious person who ever claimed he was religious. Could there be more than one Antichrist?
All true.
Hi,

2. I just love your logic.
Thank you.

Odds of a “Maverick McCain” moment in the senate? Like my mother-in-laws go to response-“I doubt it!”
