All you’ve done is shown that messaging matters.

If you knowingly help Trump, you’re a Trumper. Not my decision, it’s just how it is.

You calling yourself a Trumper?

I’m surprised you’re surprised.

I’m just curious: can you name a single bad thing that Donald Trump has done?

Those are opinion pieces and they’re wrong. The difference in support of the ACA vs Obamacare should be all the info you need.

It’s irrelevant in terms of whether it gains or loses you supporters, which is the context of the discussion we were having.

VPN baby

Did they recently permaban you too with no explanation? I suspect it’s the new upvote monitoring system deciding I liked Luigi a little too much. Figured I’d show up here for a bit and jeer at the tankies until I got bored and made a new reddit account.

I know. But it’s a nice break coming from reddit bashing bigots and fascists, now I can come here and bash tankies and edgelords until I get sick of it again.

Policy support is irrelevant. Voters have no clue what policies or proposals are out there. Most Republican voters support liberal policies when the policy is presented to them without a politician or political party attached to it. Doesn’t matter.

No, they have the power to STOP a SMALL number of things, specifically bills in the legislature. Most of what Trump is doing is completely bypassing Congress.

Republicans didn’t have to deal with the Biden and Obama administrations blatantly ignoring the Constitution first of all. But secondly, https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/senate-democrats-rekindle-their-love-for-the-filibuster-under-trump/ar-AA1AeYkP

Majority of Americans are not in Congress lol wtf does that have to do with anything

What’s illegal is basically whatever those in power decide is illegal at the moment. Stop trusting in the rules to save you; we’re well beyond that.

The sad truth is that short of acting outside the law (which is…not a terrible idea at this point), Democratic lawmakers do not have the numbers to do anything at all that would have any sort of effect. That’s YOUR fault, dear voters. Shoulda fucking voted in more Dems if you wanted them to do something.

Most of them are in Republican-ish districts so yes, their constituents actually may say something like that.

Remember, Lemmy is a ridiculous echo chamber. Bernie Sanders supporters are a small minority of the Democratic party. The overwhelming majority are centrists.

Lawmaker protests accomplish literally nothing except making people like you feel good. Legislatively and legally, Democrats are powerless, because YOU fuckers refused to vote for them. You say “do something” but this does NOTHING.

YOU should have done something at the fucking ballot box if you don’t like what’s happening.

Just hopping back on lemmy to see if we’re still doing the “blame Democrats for literally everything” thing.

Yeah?

Cool.

Ok bye, dumbasses
