I do feel like we’ve been here before though, when Obama and HOPE won so hard that there’d never be a Republican POTUS again, and then he conducted imperial BAU for eight years.
And we'll be here again, because people are morons that don't learn from their mistakes.
I have seen almost non-stop celebration today, acting as if Trump was done, Fascism was over, White Supremacy was gone, and that all has returned to right and good in the world.
These elected officials arent even sworn in yet. and wont be sworn in.. till january, and idiots are celebrating like jobs done don't have to worry about it anymore.
We have a handful of new democrats elected. We have a ton of old democrats that have no compunctions about siding with Republicans and letting Republican shit go through in exchange for that AIPAC/Big Business money. Just cause a lot of the seating chart is blue doesnt mean blue business will be done, nor does it mean red business will be stopped.
This shit isnt the fuck over. The shit is only just about to begin to get started.
2 things about Obama.
I think most of us were pretty disappointed that Obama didn't do more, but looking back, it was pretty clear that he was only brought in as the janitor to clean up after the previous cluster fuck.
The president is the head of the executive branch, not of the legislation. It's not his job to change the law. That's already the first layer of deception.
Thats the job expected of every democrat president.
Obama did exactly what he was supposed to. Capture a popular social movement and prevent it from actually accomplishing anything.
Its why Democrats exist.
Don't know why you are being down voted, this is 100% accurate
Because only a complete moron would say the ACA did nothing.
Is it great? No but it's so, so much better than what existed before. It literally has saved many lives and if not for that shitstain Lieberman could've gone further.
Maybe everyone here is too young to realize how awful healthcare was before that.
Criticize sure but people sound like idiots when they downtalk a huge piece of legislation that actually improved things a lot, even if not obviously being the best solution.
Or you know... Actual universal healthcare and pushing to punish the financial elite for the 2008 crash.
The mind of a liberal everyone
Jeez-uzz. Majick wands are in short supply. What do you expect? This shitshow has been running for several seasons. Subterfuge, chicanery and (most of all) politics have been involved in politics from day one. Life has evolved to be increasingly more dog-eat-dog in all aspects. Perhaps we can hope we're at the peak of a cycle?
what a cheerful outlook.
oh I also thought it would be convenient to have him in office if the second great depression came through, so they could just blame the black guy.
