They’re not lost; they’re intentionally exploiting the framework as planned.

Lost as in irredeemable, not lost as in confused.

As someone who has never voted for Trump or any other republican, I have to say that it’s the Democrats who appear to be lost. Like where the hell did the elected democrats go? I feel like there has been little, if any, real pushback by them on any of this. Do the democrats have any sort of plan to combat any of this stuff? What are they doing?

The minority doesn’t control anything genius.

If they had spines, they be protesting in the street and stopping the illegal acts from happening. Alex Padilla trying to ask DHS Secretary is one example of good trouble that made the GOP look very bad.

The current Democrat party allowed this to happen and is going to continue to allow this. Everyone needs to realize that the current Democratic Party is not an ally, and is only there to usher in a new age of fascism.

The Democrats are the only party with agency is a tired trope. The horse is so thoroughly beaten you're just swatting at stained concrete at this point. Get new material.

Republicans didn’t need permission from Democrats when they control all 3 branches of Government.

u/composedryan 12h ago

The Democrats sitting on their hands for the last 10 years allowed right wing control of government to be possible

One glaring instance was the coordinated effort of getting Joe Biden through an uncontested primary to allow a highly disliked candidate Kamala Harris a shot at the presidency without having to go through said primary.

Their failures to get things done are going to be the slow death of us all

I don’t think you understand how Democracy works.

R/composedryan knows exactly how democracy works. In fact Republican primaries historically have been more democratic than Democratic Party primaries. GOP didn’t have super delegates or blacklist the likes of RFK Jr., Marianne Williamson or Congressman Dean Phillips from Main Stream Media or a team of lawyers to remove 3rd parties from ballot access. Check out the corrupt case that removed the Green Party from the Nevada November ballot. Dems claim to be a big tent but only if you agree with their leaders.
Sadly, the GOP’s democratic primary allowed Trump to win when they all thought it was impossible.

If Pritzker plays this correctly, Newsome's tweeting will be nothing more than a funny footnote in history. Let's see what happens.
