      Thank you. I feel like I'm going mad watching people draw the red line at "symbolic vote". I want people fighting for M4A, not fighting for posturing on M4A.

        Exactly. Remember the GOP under Obama? They "symbolically voted" to repeal Obamacare 43 times. When they actually had the power to do it they shriveled up and caved. Remember when the Senate had a "symbolic vote" on the Green New Deal just last year? I bet half the folks in this thread don't because literally who cares about it.

          Probably one of the highlights of the post-AOC world was watching Mitch McConnell put the words "Green New Deal" on a piece of paper and demand the Senate vote on it.

          A freshman House Rep basically setting the discourse in the Senate. What an amazing media coup for the Left. AOC's a lightning rod for wingers and it backfires on them every fucking time.
