Republicans were cheating, so we just gave up?
How did that work out? Did republicans suddenly discover morals and stop cheating?
Is everything better now that we took "the high road"?
It's insane to see so many people act like they're fine with the last decade of politics and think Dems are doing a great job
A) republicans cheat within constitutional loopholes. what you bigger isn’t a loophole, it’s wholesale disregard for the constitution.
B) they’re bad so we should be bad too is a shit line of reasoning.
C) I’m not fine with the last 30 years of politics (if you think it’s only a decade that we’ve been seeing the rise of this breed of fascist right wing, you’re less informed than even I guessed from your previous comments), and the dems are doing a pretty poor job, particularly in regards to being aggressive with pushing their agenda through.
Grow up.
Maybe the people who need to hear that are the ones that thought 2020 Biden was going to be able to negotiate in good faith with Republicans?
Excellent and substantive reply. You’ve won me over. Well, you would have if I were 14, but unfortunately I’m not and you’re just showing your hand to how unaware you are of the political landscape and how shallow your understanding of the constitution is. People like you voting scare me. Not as much as people like my mother, but you’re certainly on the list.
What is it with "moderates" getting offended when someone questions their political strategy and then just piling on personal insults while claiming to have the high road?
It's been super common the last couple weeks
Never said I was a moderate.
And regardless, I call out infantile rhetoric posing as dialogue when I see it.
Yeah, figured it would just be more insults...
It's crazy you all don't realize you're basically trumpets
Calling reality for what it is isn’t an insult
Well, I'll just leave you to the juvenile insults then. Tho most people got to 4chan or Facebook for that depending on their age group.
