Yeah - Biden tried that, and literally nothing impactful actually happened, and then they all just threw up their hands and said “well, we tried, that should be good enough”

    I'll be the first one to say that the current Democratic party needs replacing, but they're not wrong.

    Or did everyone forget that you need a supermajority in the Senate to get past the Presidential veto?

    Is anyone truly naive enough to think that Donald Trump would sign anything the Democrats put forward? The man who told Republicans to tank legislation with things they wanted in it to avoid giving Democrats a win?

    Unless you're advocating for a revolution, you have to work within the system. And it's not the Democrats fault that is easier to break a thing than to fix it.

    It's always easy to point out a problem. Solutions are what we need, and all this kind of post does is discourage left-leaning people from voting, which is what the Republicans want.

    So unless you have something resembling an actual solution, this just seems like virtue signaling to me.

    If they don't both get removed from power, the rot remains
