Cool, knew that was coming, been saying that for a while, but what you going to do about it?
- Best we can do is ineffectually keep taking the high road against an opponent with no truth value while only being good in comparison to them specifically in a clown democracy with only two parties, and still working for corporate interests more than anything else.
  
  ineffectually keep taking the high road
  They're not taking the high road...
  Centrists stand at the fork and the road and talk about which one is best, but always just wait till it's a Republican's turn to pick the path, then claim the other would have been better
- With Sinema and Manchin blocking everything... there's not much lawmakers can do. America voted these clowns in.
  
  Sounds like Democrats had already crippled our democracy by blocking everything.
  
  Decades of Republicans and Republican partisan media already did that. Sinema and Manchin were end game symptoms, not causes.
  
  Sinema and Manchin were doing what party leadership wanted.
  
  Sen. Kyrsten Sinema censured by Arizona Democratic Party executive board over filibuster vote
  Kyrsten Sinema leaves Democratic Party, adding drama to tight Senate margin
  Manchin not backing Dems’ $2T bill, potentially dooming it
  Sen. Joe Manchin leaves the Democratic Party and registers as an independent
  And more recently... Manchin, Sinema block Democratic control of NLRB
  Just like what Democratic party leadership wanted...
  
  All I'm seeing is that Manchin and Sinema did what the party wanted. They blocked shit the party ran on but never wanted to implement. And when the party got a larger margin in the Senate, they left the party to narrow the margin. And now wouldn't you know it, Fetterman is starting to act like Sinema.
- A democratic senator? They ain’t gonna do sheeeeeat
- I mean a few people have tried to kill him. Its not like we're not trying..
