    Rights are still being rolled back. It doesn't matter that "he tried" people's freedoms are being taken away. This is extremely serious, and has zero room for excuses like you and the article are trying to make.

    No one will give a fuck that "he tried" to stop marriage equality from being overturned; if it happens then he already was not "trying" hard enough. He (and Democrats in general) needs to put his foot down and start removing justices if they continue to make people into 2nd class citizens.

        Fym??? There's a fucking Democrat in power right now and rights have been/ are being removed RIGHT NOW.

        Democrats won't do anything, they'll allow more rights to be removed. Fuck, they haven't even closed down the concentration camps on the border.

          These rights are being led and removed by Republican states and their respective politicians. They are unfortunately doing everything in their power to ensure their ideology remains in power. They also have a mass following that perpetuates their ideology through their media. For instance, Texas has consistently refused to follow the orders of the Biden administration when it pertains to the border. What would you expect him to do in that scenario?

            So he can do nothing? His hands are tied? Then what's the point of voting blue if you're just going to get an "oh well 🤷🏼‍♀️" whenever your rights are being taken away?

            What are Democrats going to do to prevent this?

            What would you expect him to do in that scenario?

            To prevent what he and the Democrats always say will happen if a Republican is president. Don't tell me trump will be worse and do fuckall to protect people's rights.

            The new democratic slogan should be "we can't actually stop them and aren't trying to. We just hope the lie scares you enough to vote for us. Nothing will fundamentally change."
