an endorsement != they’re setting policy
You know that… I know that. Do the consultants and millionaire pundits in the beltway at the ears of those in power know that?
I mean… so many of the people on TV seem to LOVE pretending there’s some sort of fairy-tale “middle-of-the-road” voter that only wants a little teensy tiny bit of genocide, racism, federal abortion ban, and just a little tiny 0.001% increase in taxes for billionaires… rather than just fascists / fascist apologists (Republican Trump supporters)… and people who don’t want fascist bullshit (everyone else).
and if anyone wants anything done in congress, then we’re going to need compromise and coalition building because neither party is getting a supermajority any time soon.
There won’t be any compromise. The Republicans will just block everything as much as they can like they did with Obama.
What you need to do is use the bully pulpit and get the populace on your side so that Congress is afraid to oppose you (unless they want to risk losing their seats).
No, we don’t need compromise.
No one wants compromise. No one wants the “one time mail-in rebate coupon” version of legislation.
They want simple universal non-means tested policies that work everywhere else in the industrialized 1st world countries that cost billionaires real money that they can easily afford which then provides nearly every other American real tangible life-changing benefits.
No one wants the compromised version of human rights. No one wants the compromised version of medical debt forgiveness. No one wants the compromised version of universal healthcare.
DO NOT compromise AGAIN.
If they wanna join that’s fine, but they come to over to OUR side.
We don’t move to them.
We don’t extend a hand. Biden and Obama did that with McConnell with olive branches like fucking Merrick Garland… and they still slapped the helping compromising hands away.
Please don’t fall for the Lucy football shit yet again.
feel free to tell me how you’ll get 67 votes without compromise for single payer healthcare
