“There is only one party in the United States, the Property Party … and it has two right wings: Republican and Democrat. Republicans are a bit stupider, more rigid, more doctrinaire in their laissez-faire capitalism than the Democrats, who are cuter, prettier, a bit more corrupt — until recently … and more willing than the Republicans to make small adjustments when the poor, the black, the anti-imperialists get out of hand. But, essentially, there is no difference between the two parties.”
watching the whole federal payment system get overturned by some incels with laptops after years of getting told that the parliamentarian was an insurmountable obstacle to wiping some numbers in a spreadsheet 
You wouldn’t want to hurt the parliamentarians feelings though? They’re just a widdle guy.
That's the clownish thing, the Parliamentarian is appointed by the Senate Majority leader and serves entirely at their discretion
Wanna guess who was Senate Majority leader when that all came up lol? It wasn't a Republican
No they won’t, these are in fact further evidence that the millions of voters who sat out of the election were AT FAULT for refusing to vote for Kamala. They were the ones who RUINED the pristine functioning of the American democracy.
Expect maximum smugness from the libs when minorities are threatened by fascist gangs, when immigrants are getting deported (“Latinos voted for Trump! Let’s see how they like it now!”), when Gaza is going to fare much worse under Trump’s plan etc.
In fact, the more suffering there are, the more vindicated they will feel about themselves - a self-reinforcing loop that will make them double down on voting for the Democrats and bullying the people who refused to do so.
But if the democrats broke a norm, then Republicans could do the same thing! Sure, they're doing it now even though we upheld it, but don't you see? Now, the voters will see that they broke the rules 
nooooo, not the rules

Remember when Stone Cold Steve Austin became the biggest thing in wrestling by just sitting back and taking it when he got screwed out of the championship time and time again?
It's so easy to get behind a complete and total chump!
If there's one thing that's absolutely reviled in American culture, it's a loose cannon who doesn't play by the rules.
That's every lead in any American cop movie.
It's over Drumpf, we have the moral high ground!
Ok I've tuned out of a lot of American politics recently. Anyone want to clue me into what the dems excuses were and what Trump has accomplished?
Since Obama:
Can't pass bill because you need 60 votes to end a filibuster (it takes 50 votes to ban filibustering, repubs did it in trump 1, "Biden" put it back)
Can't appoint Supreme Court Judge cause you need 60 votes (same as before)
Biden specifically:
Can't pass budget bill because parliamentarian says no (takes 50 to replace the parliamentarian)
Can't do a ceasefire in Gaza (Trump on day minus 1*)
Biden can't do X (student loans, etc) because that's illegal (DoJ and the SC both said they would not prosecute a sitting president) (Executive Orders are legal until challenged in court)
*Political fuckery ala Iran Hostage Crisis
*Political fuckery ala Iran Hostage Crisis
and just like the hostage crisis, whoooooooooo cares
in a different way in this case, in that the means to end the genocide (stopping aid) was available to the prior regime as much as the incoming one
Whenever Dems have had the opportunity to enact substantive laws, they stumble across 'the parliamentarian' or some other hurdle that prevents [progressive thing] from happening.
Trump has let Elon's sycophantic minions loose in DC as the DOGE: Department of Govt Efficiency. They have full admin on multiple systems in the Treasury Dept, they are 'fixing problems' with the aviation safety systems, they were supposed to be visiting Labor Dept today, etc. Basically, the old ratchet effect of US politics.
they are 'fixing problems' with the aviation safety systems
In my opinion this is because of that account that existed on Twitter entirely to track and publish the location of Musk's private jet.

How do I acquire this ability
GOOD post
I wish I kept a screenshot of the time a 
user told me that it's actually good that the entire goddamn nation bends to the whims of a bunch of backwoods numbskulls.
Yeah but they won’t. It’s always performative outrage and them a Dem comes into office.
They'll forget about this lol
