    Democrats are watching it burn and enjoying the show, while pretending to care by writing strongly worded letters and slamming social media posts, so that when the time comes, they can take over the government and do nothing to improve things, because they serve the same billionaire overlords pushing fascism.

      Sure… but after decades of apathy, those are the only choices Americans have left. So they either die with the republicans or buy a bit of time with the democrats while they get out of this emergency

      As I said, they are likely to do nothing so America is basically over

          What have Americans done during this time?

          To me, this is the problem… it’s not “time”… it’s that Americans seem to expect someone else will take the risk, pay the cost and do the hard work for them

          Currently every excuse Americans seem to put up revolves around the idea they will not act unless someone else provides them with a solution that is:

          • risk free

          • cost nothing

          • immediately effective

          • permanent

          • solved ALL problems and corollaries

          • will give them 100% of the credit

          Anything not marking ALL those boxes, they are not willing to do and would rather continue their (not-so) slow decline forever

            Liberals do what liberals have always done. They want leftists to do the actual hard work, the grunt work to getting politicians off the ground and then they can ride our coattails as if they have supported us the entire time.

        Lol what? Maybe in electoral politics, but that’s just a testament to the fact that we have no chance of being saved through that route.

        America is basically over

        Best outcome for the human species tbf.
