It’s too bad the Democratic Party doesn’t have a Party Whip whose job it is to force legislators to follow the party line or face consequences. Oh, they do, but they only use it on the progressive wing because the DNC doesn’t want to do anything to upset the donor class?
Ya it’s so weird how there’s always just one or two darn senators that stop all the good things that the Democrats totally definitely want to do. So weird that it keeps happening.
american liberals love to be like “ugh corporate money has corrupted the democratic process and our elected officials are bought and sold by the board members that really write policy… except for my democrat, who loves me and kisses me on the lips every night before bed”
it’s just, like it’s kind of like they mostly know what’s going on and they’re mad about it, and then somehow their conclusion is “okay we have to keep this thing going as long as possible”
Oh no did mean old Sinema and Manchin stop all the good stuff? Wow how inconvenient! So terrible! And the parliamentarian! Don’t get me started on the parliamentarian! Old Joe really does want to do good, but he’s just completely powerless due to these two incredibly inconvenient people that just started kicking up trouble. Well nothing we can do but increase cops budgets by billions, arm Nazis, ban cheap solar and EVs, expand fracking and fund genocide. Wish it could be otherwise but that’s just how it is due to Sinema and Manchin and that mean old parliamentarian. Poor Joe
Sure he can, the powers of the presidency are whatever the president feels like they are. He could have Trump, any intransigent Congress members, and the entire Supreme Court executed by drone strike if he wanted to.

it’s because he doesn’t have a plan and doesn’t want to. The closest thing they’ll ever see to a tax increase from him is him begging for donations

Oh please mods make the first part of this post a tagline
Libs will simultaneously hold the following opinions:
“Trump will destroy democracy by welding the powerful tools he has as president”
“Biden really can’t do all the things he promised because the president actually isn’t that powerful”
the is the funniest most sincere lib shit i’ve ever seen lmao
