Politicians really dont pretend to be honest, they only pretend to be as honest as anyone in politics.
Biden's approval rating drops to new low of 33% on concerns about his handling of COVID, economy: poll. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/poli...g-of-covid-economy-poll/ar-AASIfyI?li=BBnb7Kz I know some of you don't believe in polls, but the reality of the situation will hopefully sink in one day...
Sinema Rules Out Weakening Filibuster, Dealing Blow to Biden's Election-Law Push. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/poli...idens-election-law-push/ar-AASKuMJ?li=BBnb7Kz Democrats like to blame republicans, yet their own party is helping to hamstring Biden's agenda. With all that is at stake. Not even the democrats seem to be able to come together to put a stop to it.
There are 50 Democrats and 50 Republicans in the senate. There are 50 Republican shitbirds and 2 Democratic shitbirds in the senate. Do the math. barfo
Not enough urgency from democrats. Which was always going to be the outcome as soon as the DNC hand picked candidate came out of the primary. Democrats get to be the party of the educated while giving corporations all they want, Republicans get to be the party of the uneducated and religious while still giving corporations everything they want. Math says We B Fuked
Manchin and bird lady are the fall guys. I don't see much fight in the Dems which tells me they don't really want change. The owner donors have decided and so the Dems won't dare cross them. People don't seem to understand that the Republican donors are the same as the Democratic donors. This country is paralyzed by its corruption and there will be hell to pay soon.
Just wait till the Republicans take back the government with a slim margin, then eliminate the filibuster to ram a bunch of their crap through. Democrats will be looking like a bunch of chumps.
How Left Is The American Left...And Why Didn't Socialism Catch On Here? American views about the "political spectrum" are extremely skewed.
They gave already said if they get presidency and Congress they will eliminate filibuster to outlaw abortion.
Even if <insert your favorite presidential candidate here> was elected, even if Democrats had maximum urgency, Manchin and Sinema were still going to have veto powers. I don't see it turning out any different than it has. Unless <insert> had longer coattails and was able to elect more D senators - you can hypothesize that but I'm skeptical. barfo
Biden isn't putting enough political pressure on them, IMO. Because they are doing what they are supposed to. Biden is Manchin and Sinema, IMO. You need a more popular candidate who can ramp up and direct public pressure. I hate to say it, but somewhat like Trump has done. But the DNC deliberately undercuts candidates like that because those candidates will not be popular or have energy by supporting the DNC. So they arw a threat to the DNC. I don't see any other way to institute policies which will actually improve things for the middle class. That will take a drastic shakeup like what Obama probably could have done. But he wasn't actually interested in doing that.
