politics @lemmy.world•Senator Who Caved on Shutdown Says “Standing Up to Trump Didn’t Work”
3·11 months agoI hope your right, I really do. It just seems like every time a fight has been lost, the answer is always “but next time” or “but next election”… Meanwhile look where we’re at now. How many more next times do we have?

politics @lemmy.world•Senator Who Caved on Shutdown Says “Standing Up to Trump Didn’t Work”
20·11 months agoYes. All the same logic for dealing with a bully. The next “deal” will be worse. Now they know they can push as hard as they want and the opposition will always cave. This was the one chance the Dems had to show a spine against this admin and now it’s gone.
Fair points. Still seems too big brain for his current single chromosome admin, but there’s always the heritage foundation to think of.
Why hide that though? Who would stop America from invading Gaza? The kind of subterfuge you are suggesting would be more likely before an invasion of say Europe, China, or Russia. Or a coup.
Ofc not. Right wing IS the party of the rich. Knowingly or not.

But tell them they are talking to people all wrong and suddenly we are all Russian bots, or trolls, or secretly Trumpers
This bit is generally in response to the fact that the only time this rhetoric is heard is right before an election. Where was this talk and push for change the last four years? Where were the mass protests when Biden was in office and might have listened to a shutdown? Or at any point when the world wasn’t staring down the barrel of a new hitler?
You can want positive change from your own political party while also acknowledging that they are still standing on higher ground than an actual Nazi. Time and a place for each.

politics @lemmy.world•Elon Musk is pissing off everyone on Trump’s team
18·2 years agoExcept in this case he did. Hundreds of millions of dollars of influence.
When senators get bought off on issues for a couple thousand bucks at most, his contribution unfortunately did indeed sway minds that mattered.
