The few lawmakers who held town halls this summer faced voters furious with Republicans about Trump’s agenda and with Democrats for not doing enough to fight back.
With political tensions running high, the vast majority of congressional lawmakers steered clear of town halls this summer. The handful who entered the lion’s den were met with boos, jeers and tense confrontations.
President Donald Trump and the Republicans may have full control of Washington, but protesters spared neither political party. At 25 town halls across the country that were viewed or attended by NBC News this summer, voters pressured Democrats to deploy more aggressive tactics as they battle Trump and took them to task over the humanitarian crisis in Gaza.
Meanwhile, Republicans faced hostile crowds over their support for Trump’s “big, beautiful bill,” his nationwide immigration crackdown and Trump’s deployment of federal forces to Washington, D.C., in what he has called an effort to crack down on crime.
No he actually won but I’d love to see evidence if you have any.
i mean, thats what the numbers say, but actually he did a whole-ass treason so… fuck the numbers, actually.
It’s also what all the court cases said so far.
Too bad more people didn’t get off their asses and voted for Harris when it mattered.
i voted for harris in a gerrymandered district. i didn’t have a vote; i feel distinctly disenfranchised as a matter of fact. edit: guess the state.
That’s great.
Lots of people didn’t vote though.
why didn’t they?
Because they were fine with Trump winning.
Because you guys hate arabs
The left kept telling you that if you didn’t abandon genocide support, you would lose.
Centrists made their choice.
Why doesn’t the left run candidates?
between gerrymandering, fraudulent fraud claims, last-minute roll drops, mail-in ‘challenges’, a coup, failure to enforce existing voter rights laws (and i could go on for some time in this vein i believe, and provide evidence at request for each of these), dont you feel there might be some suppressed turnout rather than simply low turnout? don’t you feel there might be some legitimate claims to election tampering that might not have to do with directly interfering with the vote tally?
also i got no problem with you particularly smcf. i wasn’t part of the downvotes here, i stepped away to listen to some music about an hour ago and i came back to that person telling you to shut up and i want you to know that from my perspective we are having a respectful exchange of opinions, no hard feelings here for making a valid observation about lazy complacent voting habits in american voters, nor for the unstated criticism lurking behind “That’s great.”
Would you shut up? That’s done. We need to deal with now. Exactly what is your comment supposed to do? It helps with ZERO. What l, you want to sit and smuglybtell everyone your right? Congrats. You and millions of others. Now shut up. Pretty please
It blames people who weren’t 100% on board with genocide in the hopes that they’ll shut up forever.
So your answer is to be an asshole?
Nothing good ever came from being an Asshole.
Nice deleting of your previous answers. Don’t b a dick.
If you think I have been insufficiently civil to genocide supporters, report me.
What are you talking about?
No sorry but everyone who didn’t vote needs to be reminded everyday what they helped bring in.
Lmao you voted for warcrimers and you still think you have the morale highground? Scumbag
One day your leaders will be trialed
Ah, do youre young and unaccustomed to the real world and how these things happen
Well there’s lots of documentaries about how if happens. How cults are born and fall that is.
But maybe you’re perfect, never got scsmmed or fooled. What’s that? You’re not?
Then why are you acting like that?

He’s a groopie
You should, yes. Listen to your base and you might not lose.
I have to clarify this: netanyahu is not your base.
I literally am against Israel’s genocide but I guess you wouldn’t care because it’s against your narrative.
centrism manifest.
Realistist manifest.
I can understand the confusion you might have though.
Condescension is how centrists announce to the world that they’re wrong.
If only Harris hadn’t been the VP in a genocidal administration. She might had won
