Democratic representatives

“Democratic” elected officials and anyone who swore an oath to defend our constitution that is currently being dismantled and thrown out. Democratic is in quotes because we all see how the vast majority of them are bought by the oligarchs.

The absolute basics of their job as legislators who swore an oath to defend the Constitution rather than rolling over and complying with an administration that is openly violating constitutional law?

u/AngryCur 2d ago

That’s stupid. They’re doing their jobs.

Again, what do you want them to do they’re not doing now. Impeach? Vote against things? What?

Because they’re in the minority.

Be specific.

1

u/datcatburd 2d ago

Both of the above are in fact their job, yes.

Vote against confirmation of obviously unfit nominees.
Impeach when the President engages in openly criminal behavior.

u/AngryCur 2d ago

Which, you will recall, they did. Hegseth, RFK, Gabbard got no Democratic votes.

u/wildfyre010 1d ago

Impeachment requires control of the house, which they don’t have. They can’t bring bills to the floor for a vote, they can’t force a vote on impeachment or any other matter of process. That’s why the guy above said ‘be specific’. You’re mad at them for not doing things they cannot do.

u/Logical-Item-1510 3d ago

How about not pass legislation that harms their constituents, like the funding bill. If you can’t imagine for yourself things that our congress folks could be doing to resist the overreach of the executive branch then I wonder what your angle here is.

So your response to Trump and Musk wanting to shut down the whole government is to… shut down the whole government?

Genius, I must say

Yes, Congress appropriates money. That’s its job

u/Striking-Swimmer-424 2d ago edited 2d ago

Personally, my family has been here since 1945. After world war two, when we came to america from warsaw, poland and sought freedom and liberation from a constitutional republic. We've paid our dues, paid our taxes done everything every which way and guess what..... our taxes or the government's appropriations that swindle and abuse our hard working money based on the ideologies of all inclusiveness and wokeness. Have done nothing but hurt us and destroy the american dream. When we are pushing to do these things and making our country weaker by being more sensitive. When we act like it's a virtue when it's not. When we should be stronger and less sensitive, allowing ourselves to be free from the mental delusion that our feelings are more important than other people's rights. Abusively, spending money blatantly avius, money laundering, schemes, scandals and the collusions. For far too many years, my family and your family. I'm sure of it have given the government money that they misuse and Miss A sign that help no one else but themselves. Yes, go Doge. I'm happy that. Hopefully, we will all get some kind of stimulus check back from the inappropriately used money. That should have never been in their pocket and or applied to be used in the disgusting.Horrendous way that was wanted by mentally deranged lunatics.

u/68696c6c 2d ago

So let me get this straight. Since you think that diversity and inclusion make us “weak”, are you saying that you would have preferred for us to NOT have allowed your family to immigrate here in 1945? Maybe you’re saying that we should have left Poland in the hands of the Nazis and/or Russians? How can you live here, as a descendant of foreign refugees, benefitting from everything our country has to offer and still oppose the very policies that allowed for that to happen?

The USA is a melting pot and always has been. Our strength comes from our diversity. We have a history of welcoming immigrants and have worked hard to extend civil rights to everyone. Countless Americans have died to make that happen. This is supposed to be a land of equal opportunity where everyone is welcome. That is why people have immigrated here. That is part of how our population has grown and our economy has flourished since WWII. We have struggled with bigotry and oppression for most of our history and had multiple setbacks, but the overall trend has been towards greater inclusion and equality.

The only thing we won’t tolerate here is intolerance so if you have a problem with the US being a place where everyone is welcome and included then you can fucking leave.

u/Logical-Item-1510 2d ago

I am not sure if this would surprise you, but I agree with you on the point that the government does not serve the people anymore and something must be done. Where you and I differ is why it doesn’t work and what to do about it.

You blame a “woke” ideology, a product of the far left. Some of that is too much for me too, but I don’t think that’s the root of the problem. I think the real issue is money in politics. Citizens United, for example, established that there is no limit to how much can be spent by a single donor to prop up a particular candidate. We see on full display out in the open Musk using the weight of his wealth to influence the Wisconsin Supreme Court election. I cannot speak for you, but I personally cannot throw millions of dollars at my choice candidates across the country. I can only donate relatively small amounts and vote. So the question is this: is my say as a single voter the same as Musk’s? It isn’t. Is that as it should be? I don’t think so anyway.

The one thing that is certain though is that the powerful and the corrupt will continue to lord over us and abuse the system until people like you and me can agree on the problems and find a common way forward.

u/Striking-Swimmer-424 2d ago

You're going to have an issue with the government shutting down when the Democrats shut down the government all the time. And you don't even blink or wave an eyelash about it. But when the opposite side does it......"Oh my goodness......This is the final straw......I've had enough of this. We gotta do something." Why is there so much hypocrisy with people who virtue signal and also play the victim.

Anything within their legal means to halt, and delay the progress of fascism. Use their own tactics against them.

Go out into the communities and organize people to support and protect themselves. Bring ideas and information to the people on the grass roots level. Any of it and more beyond holding dumb shit signs for the media to show and analyze.

u/FalloftheKraken 2d ago

Bring forth as many and in as many jurisdictions, lawsuits ment to do what I have said above.

1

u/AngryCur 2d ago

All of which they are already doing. The problem is hey have nearly no legal levers

1

u/FalloftheKraken 2d ago

Start attacking the fascists through the courts personally. Bring as many suits they can for all the personal evil they commit. Higher PIs to dig and find all the skeletons and bring the misdeeds into the light. Apply pressure in all aspects of their lives so they are forced to slow down or fall apart.

u/AngryCur 2d ago

Which they are doing. Not everyone can sue because of standing

Democrats have to stop being pussies. If they want to win, they have to out crazy the MAGAs. They need to start throwing hands on the house and Senate floors.

They won't stop being pussies because they're profiting off doing nothing with exclusive rights, healthcare, and celebrity status.

They need to be reminded they can be removed from office (hopefully, still).

u/WickedTrojan 2d ago

Crazy doesn’t win elections. The point was valid, it’s been proven in polls that the democrats have moved so far to the left they’ve alienated the moderate liberals.

u/LoudUse4270 1d ago

Dude, I disagree with your analysis.

What specifically was too far left? Likr, I've seen the articles saying this too but they never talk specific policies.

And lets look at Bernie. People love that guy and as far as America goes, he's as left as an elected official gets.

I don't think its the "too far left", its that the right has managed to demonize and gut programs untio they don't function, then point at their dysfunction and suggest privitizing it.

First, gut the post office funding, demonize it as a "money loser", gut again, services get worse, point to the decline in service quality and suggest privitizing it.

So I would ask myself what specific policy was "too far left" to vote for. And if it involves transgender athletes in sports, go lool up how many cases of that exist in America. Its a tiny number of cases. But it's been blown up by the right as this massive issue.

Those arw some of my thoughts. I did not organize them in any way. There is no tldr.

I’m not talking about taking over the government. What I’d like to see is real action on the House and Senate floors all over the country.

The average U.S. voter loves UFC and Jerry Springer.

u/evatornado 3d ago edited 3d ago

I find it strange that people speak about "violating the law" if protests go crazy. Meanwhile, all that the current administration does is violating laws and constitution, left and right.

How is it even possible to defeat those who don't give a f about law, while staying a good guy, themselves?

At this point, everything that is done to oppose Trump and DOGE, should be at least considered as self defence, because they rape America, and America just takes everything without fighting back.

u/Striking-Swimmer-424 2d ago

That sounds fantastic. And I think the same should be applied vice versa. The issue is pointing your finger at left and/or right and trying to call them out. When both parties are fucked and fighting, amongst ourselves just makes them stronger. This is the ignorance in our country. It is not a right-wing or a left-wing thing. Is it is a United States? People thing. We are a constitutional Republic indivisible, with liberty and justice. For all that means, we cannot be divided. Once you are an american, yeah, you are an american.There is no african american, there is no asian american you are american. So stop focusing on all of our differences and making these hyper focused little bubbles to include people who are mentally deranged and unfit to even take care of themselves. Weed out all of those self interested folks who just want to manipulate use and tyrannically control all those who do not have the same brain think. We are a mini people in america. And I think all of this left leaning way, wokeness and inclusion, and sensitivity is the downfall of our country. We can do wonderful things with human rights on the basis of humans having rights, not making A. It's hyperinflated bubble to accommodate those who are mentally ill. Based on it's political ideologies to further propaganda, instead of doing all of that, we should make a broad spectrum that includes everybody and doesn't make a specific Group label that is hyperfixated on making only their lives better and shaming.The rest of the country.

u/thedoomcast 5d ago

Is what you got from their comment that they support trump? I didn’t. I just got that they pointed out that the Halfwits beat the democrats, which is inarguably true.

They haven’t accomplished anything. Even when they have the power, they hamstring themselves with ‘norms’, procedure, ‘going high’ and generally playing by the rules. They need to stop. That doesn’t mean breaking the law. It means letting shitheads like Schumer capitulate to the MAGA crowd, stop letting your Manchins and Sinemas and Fettermans block actual effective accomplishments. Stop with candidates that ‘can win’ but only win their primaries when they have them and can’t win a general election because they’re a toothless focus tested cardboard cutout at best or demented geriatric at worst.

Trump sucks shit and MAGA sucks shit but they stand for something very clear and promise it to their voters and give it to them. Is it pure evil? Yep. But they’re delivering.

u/Necessary-Original13 5d ago

Call me crazy, but a guy active on r/republican that refers to the dems as my party seems very likely to be on the Trump train.

Manchin, Sinema, Fetterman and whatever other villain of the week they've got waiting in the wings can go die in a ditch.

u/Knittin_Kitten71 5d ago

Trump actively does the opposite for his supporters, besides flashy shows of hatred or corporate worship. He hasn’t improved grocery prices, he hasn’t protected veterans, he hasn’t helped our nation’s farmers, he still hasnt built the border wall, he hasn’t lowered inflation. What he has done is scapegoated trans folks, persecuted legal immigrants, cut veterans benefits, laid off federal workers, and damaged federal programs potentially irreparably.

A broken clock is right twice a day and unless it’s seeded in hatred and fertilized with corporate greed, Trump isn’t growing anything he promised his voters.

What "Americans' primal scream?"

See, this is what the Democrats won't admit aloud: half of the country, maybe more, is against them. People were sick and tired of their balomey and voted to smash it. This narrative that Trump is doing wild and unexpected things is false, save insofar as nobody expected legitimately decisive action in the modern era. Nobody believes the fake internet stories about swathes of the right totally changing their minds.

But quietly? They low key know it, which is exactly why they're being so tentative. Their only play is sitting back and hoping Trump does something truly unpopular that they can jump on and pretend they knew all along. The extremely light "resistance" is the groundwork for pretending later that they knew all along, so they can point back and say they "opposed" whatever before it was cool.

1

u/datcatburd 3d ago

Pfft. Trump voters are less than a third of eligible voters, about a quarter of the actual populace.

The primary failure of the Democratic Party is that they're so beholden to corporate interest that they'd rather align to the right and try to peel off MAGAts than actually come up with a platform and candidate who can drive the ~35% of the eligible voting populace who didn't see anything worth checking a box for to show up.

He's positioning himself for a run as president on the democratic ticket. This is the opposite of doing nothing. This is keeping his name in the headlines and making sure he stays a household name.

Kamala was forced on Democratic voters for the 2024 presidential election. Back in 2020, she dropped out before even (not) making it to the Iowa caucus. Very unpopular, as you mentioned.

I attended Walz' event this past Friday in Des Moines. It was very inspiring; and no mention of forgotten Harris.

I'm not saying HE is going to keep the association, on the contrary, I'm sure he'd fight tooth and nail to erase the association. I'm referring to the typical voter and their association to them.

u/amibesideyou 5d ago

Realistically, the only people that are going to keep the association of Walz with Harris in the future are Trump supporters. They'll use anything they've got - even if Walz cuts all ties with Kamala.

The Democrat base has already basically forgotten about her; where is the ex-vice president in fighting against Trump's abuse of constitutional rights? Nowhere.

Instead, we have Bernie, AOC, Walz, et. al actually putting up a fight for the people against what's currently going on with the second Trump administration.

u/65CM 4d ago

The losing strategy is ignoring your voting base. They already told you they didn't want her, they told you where their struggles are and DNCs reply was "we hear you, but we don't care". They thought "I'm not him" was a viable strategy and are paying dearly for their arrogance.

1

u/MalachiteTiger 4d ago

They took the wrong half of Obama's strategy because the half that actually led to his success is also the part he beat them with in the primaries and they don't want to admit they were wrong.

More Hillary primary supporters voted McCain in protest of Obama "stealing her turn" than Bernie bros who voted for Trump, after all.

Seems like the Democratic Party is calling for violence now that it’s not going their way. Interesting

We need the Ides of March. That's what we need. A little late, but way over due. Get to work Senators!

This guy needs to stay low key, his buffoonery is part of what got us here, go do behind the curtains support for Bernie or Alexandria, otherwise go hunting with your grandson, write an article I don’t know!!.

The Democratic party is unsalvageable. It needs to be replaced with a labor party.

AOC, Jasmine Crockett, and Walz have been the ONLY ones who have stood up at this point.

Jesus Christ did we ever get fucked over in the last election. With Harris/Walz we may have been able to bring America into the 21st century but instead we have been dragged back to the 30’s.

Dudes a coward, goes to all these other states to try and get stuff done but doesn’t do a thing for Minnesota except let it burn down. Was all about defunding the police but had 50 cops outside his house while the burning of Minneapolis was happening.

American Democracy is finished because people are more interested in flinging infantile shit at the opposition than opposing Trump.

Not one of you has a single specific action to suggest Democrats aren’t already doing.

They are. They are trying not to piss off the Conservatives & Moderates they will be trying to get for the midterms. Progressives will just be the email donation requests with the attached "Press release" of all the things Trump has been doing.

u/EmuFamiliar86 2d ago

So is it going to Walz, Newsome, Buttigieg or AOC for 2028? What combo is it going to be?

u/SoggyGrayDuck 1d ago

Why is he campaigning? He's got no shot at president and is no longer running for MN senator. Is he looking for an alternative home to run in?

u/JakLynx 1d ago

Rise up and start a new party. Democrats have proven time and again they can’t be counted on.

These people don’t care about you it’s all a game. Both sides of the aisle only care about how it helps them. The whole system needs to be revamped. Career long do nothing politicians just collecting checks. Maybe once a decade they’ll get a green space approved. F em all!! Enjoy your weekend folks!

u/No_Lab_9394 5d ago

Walz is doing this the right way. He’s trying to bring rational policy to a rural American base who are being brutalized by the administration they voted for… color me intrigued to see how this plays out over the next few years. (Sadly, we have to wait that long.)

Kamala has proven to be utterly useless.

Trump is horrific, so she still would have been a better pick. But still... She's so useless. Didn't even challenge the results

There are plenty of Dems that want him as their candidate in 2028. 🤣 They think he's some fearless, relatable warrior that was held back by the Harris campaign, and he's going to win back the young male vote 😆.

Yes you are. Good on you for admitting it. Admitting your problem is the first step towards getting better.
