  • The economy is consistently better under Democrats. Things consistently get better under Democrats.

    I get that it’s not as fast as any of us would like, but if you’d loved through it and paid attention, you’d have a better understanding of why. Obama understood he was a centrist, and it’s why he centered his first term strategy on being the most bipartisan president of all time.

    McConnell saw that strategy and thought it was more important to defeat Democrats than to improve the country.

    The real problem isn’t the Democrats, status quo or not. The problem is that the Republican party exists. The problem is that every so many years the voters get bored with slow, steady improvement and spend the next several years tearing everything down.

    And it’s a hell of a lot easier to destroy than to build.

    I’d love to be choosing between Democrats and Socialists. I’d love to have two sane choices. I’d love if our dividing issue was whether trans people should be allowed in women’s sports, and not whether trans people should be allowed to live.
