Anyone noticed that something is off with congressional public Democrats these days too? Is that how you defend freedom and democracy from raising tyranny, insanity and chaos? Definitely not. Not a chance.

Look at them and all you'll get is that nothing much is happening. Getting cozy with a modern Hitler. Threats of a direct attack against former ally. Economic wars started and waged against former allies. But another election is coming in a couple of years and it will fix everything. Guaranteed, in 1936.

Sad, pathetic and past regrettable. Stuck in their narrow tunnel view resisting and holding by all straws and crooks to ignore the reality. Ah. Isn't that exactly, almost identical to how it happened the last time?

But what does the number of repetitions matter if there's no brain to remember and learn, and no spine and courage to stand? Two centuries old script, ink on rotting paper will do miracles? Go on. Simply pathetic.

  • myata changed the title to Congressional Democrats are a sad, pathetic and terrified bunch. History doesn't forgive that

Last night at the joint congressional address, the Democrats unmasked themselves. The showed America and the world, how deeply disturbed they really are. As time goes by, the Democrats will try to repair the damage they've caused themselves. They'll lie and deny about everything. But the video of last night's fiasco will always remind the public of what sort of people the Democrats really are.

Just amazing that the only thing they cheered for was spending money on Ukraine. 

Not for a little boy fighting cancer, honored as an honorary Secret Service Agent. Nope... Sat in silence for that.

I'm not sure what else you're expecting?  They've just had their politics, agendas and their status rejected in favor of the Orange Blob the American public didn't even really like the first time around.  

They've a lot of shit to figure out.

myata's trying to cut through liberty and get straight to marxism.

This is the case - not the first one in the recent history, when life throws in an unexpected challenge but you only know how to work by the script from here to there and are completely dumbfounded and paralyzed. And this is exactly how German democracy failed to fascism leading up to WWII. Let's just wait for the next election.

That's how it works.  When you're a minority in opposition, you don't have much sway.  Until some of the cowards and sycophants in the Republican House start pushing back, the Democrats have zero power.  That's not likely going to happen until the consequences of the Orange Blob's circus percolate through.

You're always complaining, but WHAT are YOUR SOLUTIONS? Asked before, and you've brought NOTHING.

That's what they did in Germany, waiting patiently for their turn, not so? Quite possibly in pink suits too. Know what happened next? Because "opposition", "constitutional democracy" are a given, guaranteed by some supreme wisdom and you only need to follow the lines from here to here. Easy!

Resist. Lead. Call it for what it is. Use every opportunity to speak out. Connect with people outside the dusty chambers, see some sunlight for a change. Grotesque and pathetic, they are such a smug match. Pitiful.

"Sorry to break it, but ignoring it is what the Germans did".

I don't think Dems are ignoring it, but their power is very limited.

So far, they are putting the brakes on all Congressional moves, but that's not real effective when everything is being pushed through by Trump/Muskrat.

Many cases are being pursued/won in the courts. They need to push the Impound Act in court.

Not sure that will survive this SCOTUS.

In such cases of direct, existential threat to democracy, the resistance cannot be limited to formalities and procedures. Of course they need to be used, but this isn't all of it and not by far. It's the utmost stupidity, why being mild or else is it carelessness to assume that the procedure that has gotten you all the way here will somehow save you in the last moment, miraculously.

Well, if you have the answer, you need to run and get elected, right?

Yes. They've allowed their raw hatred for Orangemanbad, force them to not want peace and to disrespect people like that kid.

And the whole world has seen it.

Sorry, I had to ask: are you dumb, or just departed way beyond this reality? Do you understand that a procedure is an attribute of a functional democracy and not the other way around? The Congress works in a functional democracy or it can be a pet council of a dictator. Public elected dictator Mussolini in Italy for ten years, there are elections of some kind in China and Russia. There's no firm connection between that word "election" and a functional democracy. Everything is in the detail of democracy: the rule of law, active citizens, responsibility of politicians, leaders who understand the reality and have will to act when needed and as needed. Any chance?

Well, if you don't have the answer to the current predicament, then how can you complain about anyone else not having it?

Hopeless, isn't it? Back in 1780 people did not have democracy; but at least they understood that first they have to install and/or defend it, then design and construct processes. Not the other way around, they understood that. Processes on paper do not mean, assure or even suggest a working democracy. Two plus centuries on, clueless like a blank sheet. Like never happened. Regression is the word.

But you still don't understand what happened. You never understand Trump's FRAUDS, in this case CUTTING FUNDING for that little boy's cancer research while taking credit for his treatment/recovery.

The problem for Democrats is they resisted so emphatically for so long that a lot of people will not take them seriously. I mean some even tried to remove Trump from the ballot while telling people he was a threat to democracy. The Democrats resisted Trump straight into office.
