    How can people still believe the dems will stop the right after a full term of them not doing anything to stop the right?

    Every promise will be broken, every pseudo-progressive bullshit they spew is a facade, they don’t care about trans peoples, black peoples or anyone that isn’t a wealthy strait white men or a cop.

    If you look at what they are actually doing it’s no better than what the republicans are doing.

      It’s especially vexing when it’s Gen Xers and boomers. Like I get if it’s some zoomer or younger millennial who only just became aware of politics in the late teens and hadn’t been burned yet. But when it’s people who’ve been through multiple dem presidents failing to live up to the promises still believing that vote for team blue is going to meaningful evolve anything, that’s sad.

        After decades of helping the right

        During Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer’s press conference, I asked why Democrats were negotiating curtailing immigration with a party led by Mr Trump.

        “What Donald Trump said and did was despicable, but we do have a problem at the border and Democrats know we have to solve that problem, but in keeping with our principles,” he said.

        Just another drop in the ocean of monstrous things they’ve helped conservatives do
