Republicans are in worse shape now. Now THEY get to own everything that happens with health insurance. Dems actually put them in a worse position. Plus, SNAP gets funded through 2026, even if thereβs another shutdown.
Republicans (and the money that backs them) have wanted to abolish the ACA for 15 years. Itβs in their Mein Kampf, Project 2025. There was NO opening where they were willing to negotiate. So, if the objective is to get ACA hammered out, but they wonβt come to the table, and children are hungryβ¦

Tell me what your ideal minority leader in the Senate would have accomplished yesterday?
Democrats canβt focus on the real enemy. Instead theyβd rather bitch and whin about their own Party. Theyβre their own worst enemy.

Get onboard, or fuck straight off.
Thatβs ridiculous.

VOTE BLUE
Thatβs it. Itβs that simple.
WTF?
How about, if voters could get past their racism and misogyny we could have had the better person running the country now.
Yeah. Thatβs it. The problem lies with the VOTERS.
Trump voters, 3rd Party voters, and those that didnβt vote ALL get to wear the blame.
I didnβt realize you had the inside scoop. So youβve been in the chambers while they were meeting? Cool.

We donβt control The House, The Senate, The White House, or the SCOTUS, but you think we had some power positions we could play? Explain it to meβ¦
To everyone pissed off at Dems:
Maybe vote for them across the board and this doesnβt happen. Ever give THAT any thought?
We donβt control The House, The Senate, The White House, or the SCOTUS because voters failed, and now those same voters are blaming other people for THEIR failures.
Iβve been involved in negotiations where I was not in a position of strength. For anyone to suggest Dems could have gotten everything tells me theyβve never been in that position.
10.11.2025 14:22 β π 2 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0This situation isn't going to matter in 2 weeks. Republicans are going to do plenty of awful things between now and next November. Plus, they are going to try to cheat their way to victory in the midterms. All your anger towards Dems (as misplaced as I believe it is) will find its proper place.
10.11.2025 14:06 β π 2 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0I've got some bad news for those that believed Dems could have gotten everything they wanted. It wasn't going to happen. They don't control The House, The Senate, The White House, or the SCOTUS. And if you aren't happy now, we have 3 more years of this. Don't blame the Dems. This is on THE VOTERS!

10.11.2025 13:35 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0The "We get everything or nobody get's anything" is a leftist ideology I just can't connect with. Politics is about compromise (if there are adults in the room), to not understand that is to embrace ignorance. Push your leftist candidates and take those losses with your head held high.

10.11.2025 13:27 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0There are no wins. And, again, the Republicans and voters are responsible for this. I won't pivot my anger to those trying to salvage something from those that deserve our wrath. But you go ahead and give the Republicans what they want and blame the Dems. It's all part of the Republicans plan.
