And the Democrats couldn't even do a symbolic vote? Or force everyone to a war resolution vote so that they're on record and politically toxic when this whole thing collapses?

Not an argument, they do nothing when they control the government too

The only way to “punish” the Democrats at the time this post was written was to allow Trump to be elected.

Which is absurd. Centrists don't see a continuation of their only policy as a loss. They see it as an opportunity to blame the left and nothing else.

Ah, the old false narrative of binary choice. Fun fact: You can vote for anyone, even if they're not displayed (via write-in). Yeah, statistically anyone other than the anointed two will probably lose, unless enough people make the same decision, which actually does exist as a possibility because the two parties did not write the rules of reality, they just influenced things in their favor.

But of course, the Democrats can never fail, they can only be failed. Republicans fear their constituents, democrats hate theirs.

Well i guess that worked out swimmingly for her and her kind, lofl.

Don't most people do that? I'd say any mainstream attempt to turn the upvote-downvote system into anything other than like-dislike is doomed to fail. We need a second pair of arrows for "worth reading" vs "don't bother"
