They also sat on their asses for 4 years as fascism festered. They never fired Merrick Garland. They never stacked courts. They censured Al Greene. They didnt question Biden's campaign until just before midnight. They ignored Biden's terrible polling. They confirmed Trump's cabinet picks with minimal opposition. Dem leadership folded and passed Trump's budget.
Every single democratic senator voted to confirm Marco Rubio - who then answered by doing fascism in short order
The democrats are controlled opposition, and it's time to abandon them. No amount of "calling out hypocrisy" is going to stop fascism.
I’m not saying they’ve gotten everything right. I’m refuting the accusations that they are spineless do-nothings. If the world appears binary to you, you need to get out more.
