If Democrats were a real opposition party now would be a good time to start hammering on the 25th. All it takes is Vance plus a simple majority of the president’s cabinet (15 people total, 8 for a majority). They could start smearing Vance and every member of the cabinet for being responsible for letting a senile nearly 80 year old abuse the highest powers of state and sell favors to foreign countries.

Well, hang on a second there. That sounds like responsibility!!

Oh, is that all? Maybe the Democrats are smart enough to know that Republicans will never willingly get rid of Trump. He's their entire party. Or maybe they're smart enough to know that Vance and half the Cabinet don't give a fuck about Dems calling for the 25th amendment. How fucking dumb do you have to be to think Vance and the Cabinet are gonna be like "hey, you'te right Dems, never thought of that. We'll do that now that you've suggested it".

As usual, we hold Democrats to impossible standards and roll out the red carpet for Republicans.

The point is to make them look bad for not doing it and not as a way to actually make them do it. But I hope you feel better for getting that off your chest, or something. Sorry I didn’t vote hard enough from my blue city in my blue county in my blue state.

They are rapist and pedophiles. How does this make them look worse?

How’s screaming that they are all pedos working out? Because so far it looks like it doesn’t make any Republicans lose office. Dems need to play politics or go home.

So much cognitive dissonance.

You claim the democrats are failings to smear in some specific way that is nothing compared to what is already known.

You either think child rape isn't worse or you didn't think, refuse to think. You can only blame the democrats.

The difference between you and maga is unclear.

[–] Clent@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

The important part is that you managed to blame the democrats for what the republicans are failing to do.

[–] Catoblepas@piefed.blahaj.zone 0 points 4 weeks ago

If you think their job right now is to do fuck all and collect checks then I’m sure you have no complaints.

Ok, but the Dems only unite on losing so...

how does this help their cause?
