'Shame on you!' Dems erupt on House floor as Mike Johnson orders recess despite shutdown - Lemmy.World

Democratic leadership in this moment is incredibly bad.
Oh yes, how dare they shutdown the house floors… Oh wait.

I think the goal of some of these lemmites (lemmings, lemmors?) is to push all the moderates out of the Democratic Party so we’re left with only the truest most liberal of politicians. And from there, we will win 20 senate seats and never see the presidency again.

If democrats aren’t alienating the majority of Americans, they aren’t the party for us!

Ah the enlightened centrist take that has been leading to loss after loss in campaigns.
I’m in no way saying we need to take a moderate/centrist approach. I am saying this is a moment when Republicans are vulnerable, and all this community wants to do is bag on the Democratic Party. That is how we always lose.
They’re bagging on the Democratic leadership who are once again not doing anything to actually take advantage of that vulnerability…
You don’t always need to take action to take advantage of a vulnerability.

Doing nothing, as they have been, has done fuck all.

You USUALLY have to take some action.
