See, there's where we differ. You think they chose the "easy" option. This seems to imply some kind of desire to actually accomplish what they set out to do. We think they chose the option they knew would fail so they would have an excuse for not doing anything, which is what they wanted all along. The Democrats have a long history of weaseling their way out of anything remotely progressive. They're goddamn experts at using the system to accomplish nothing, only to then fundraise on it forever.

This one will join the dustbin of dead leftish policies, like a "Public Option," Increased minimum wage, and codifying Roe v Wade.
