Meanwhile, on the hellhole that is r/politics:
-Still Trump bashing
-Cruz bashing
-Jan 6 freaking out
This MASSIVE deal is currently buried on controversial sort.
Between this and the redistricting going on in Amerikkka, with hardline conservatives controlling most statehouses, these morons are gonna somehow cede a supermajority to R's in the middle of a liberal president's term and act clueless as to why.
Top headline projection for the day after 2022 midterms: Why This is All Donald Trump's Fault
these morons are gonna somehow cede a supermajority to R’s in the middle of a liberal president’s term and act clueless as to why.
"Leftists didn't show up for the Midterms and cost us everything!!"
"Then why didn't you do anything to win over Leftists?"
"Because you're irrelevant!! Twitter isn't real life!!"
"Then why are you blaming us for your loss?"
Repeat until the atmosphere catches on fire.
Folks, a very orange specter is haunting the lib mind palace, he's very spooky! :cheeto-man:
They're struggling to imprison trash, the libs are gonna carry the trials to 2022 then be surprised when the republican Latino demographic makes the entire democrat strategy an oopsie
And this is why I'm starting twinks for trump
Why This is All Donald Trump’s Fault... and Russia's.
In the aftermath of the 2022 dem failure I look forward to Rachel Maddow (etc) pushing the possibility that Russia interfered in 2022 more than is currently know. Sure, the Russkies must have used a mind control ray and got Biden to fuck up the easy layups of legalizing weed and cancelling student debt.
Redistricting alone could give the Republicans the House even without flipping any other seats.
Yes; and it's one of the least talked about things. But I have a feeling that Biden being this brazenly stupid is going to push that needle even further
Also being cut: The infrastructure plan, which will be reduced to meet GOP expectations. Broadband funding and road, bridges, and highway repairs will be removed
LMAO with that bridge cracked for years. I wonder how many other bridges are bound to collapse in the name of anticommunism.
Infrastructure without road, bridge and highway repairs? Are they literally just building microprocessor plants to compete with China?
I can get why the government isn't spending shit on actual welfare but why do they not even bother with Infrastructure? I could imagine Amazon would be fucking thrilled to see more government money being used to work on the roads that they use every day to make money
I like how they're raising taxes on corporations, but only to 2017 levels which is still insanely low.
Student debt cancellation is such a lay-up, Biden could probably entrench a lot of Bernie bros into his base with just that
Rescheduling weed at the executive level alone would guarantee the Democrats retain the House and Senate.
They would literally rather lose forever than do that.
Yes, this is the point of the DNC. To loose so bad that even if they win they still actually loose.
It's insane. Cancelling student debt and legalizing marijuana would cement a massive portion of younger voters as lifelong and vocal democrats. They just simply don't give a fuck lol
Wow you tankies are so goddamn needy. We can't afford those things. Are you crazy? We need to increase arms sent to Israel, jack.
I mean, what's more important? Improving social programs or funding an apartheid state? I mean have you seen the size of rocks those dirty Muslims throw at the poor IDF?
Stop thinking about yourself, tankie.
Also China has a rover on Mars now, we need 200 billion more dollars to arm our Mars rovers now
America begins Mars colonization project for the sole purpose of having more funny looking foreigners to drone strike
released late on Friday, which is what you do to minimize news coverage
all business, no stupid tweets. sounds like a plan.
Yeah thank god we don't have mean tweets man making us look dumb on twitter anymore!
Too left wing radical. We need to negotiate it down to get support from House Republicans.
That's truly the best part, they negotiated down and still didn't get any R votes, as expected. Like I even saw blue wave people being like, "why do they keep trying to work with Republicans, they never actually vote for the bills" real egg on face moment. But I mean we all know part of the reason they even do this charade is their donor class does not want these things, but it's all part of the song and dance so they can pretend like they almost did these things, that's close enough, right?
I also hear a lot of "We want to but can't because of manchin and sinema" these days.
I've had a couple redditors in r/politics reply to me that the solution to Manchin and Sinema is that we vote harder.
Vote harder is the go-to all-around solution to any problem the dems have.
the solution to Manchin and Sinema is that we vote harder.
The best bit is that they don't mean PRIMARY those clowns. No, the reddit liberal guide to being completely useless is to instead vote for dems elsewhere and just...leave them be. If they got primaried, they might get replaced by conservatives! Those conservatives would surely vote against all the same stuff Sinema and Manchin would vote against, for COMPLETELY different reasons
If the GOP had done Obama era-like obstructionism in, say, the 1970s - I could at least understand Biden saying said he still has gotta try to work with the GOP because that was so long ago. But in our actual reality - when Biden was VP - he wasn't the second most powerful person in DC - McConnell was. Biden was in the fucking room when McConnell ratfucked Obama time and again. Anyone with a brain understand these. And now that Biden, himself, is president - the second most powerful person in DC is not Kamala - it's Manchin.
PRIMARY those clowns
I've suggested that in r/politics but I was patted on the head and I was told that I don't understand how politics works.
Of course, because that's a deviation from the norm. They would rather ride the river of mediocrity and piss into the eventual ocean of piss than change course. Because change is scary to these people. It's why they keep falling back into line time and again, even as their own party fucks them and everyone else over.
The lib argument is that since Manchin is from a deep red state he's the most "valuable" Dem senator and even with his obstruction a GOP senator in his place would do even worse things (like block the stimulus bill). This is pretty effective at stopping all conversation because it's enough to justify literally anything Manchin does.
To get support from ~10% more House Republicans.
Nothing is going to stop the GOP from torpedoing Biden. But if he scuttles the ship himself... [taps forehead]
Alright it’s time to play “guess what asinine comments the rich libs I went to highschool with will make to defend Biden for this flat out betrayal”
Edit: Yes I know it’s all gonna be “blame the conservatives” but you can’t do that while Biden is going out of his way to work with them
