I'm sure allowing a manchild narcissist authoritarian insurrectionist to appoint more judges and sell more state secrets will teach Biden and the Dems a big lesson. 1/3 of SCOTUS were installed by an insurrectionist and about 1/2 of the House and Senate are backing an insurrectionist.

Yeah it's pretty grim. But political parties don't listen to anything but votes and power. They aren't benevolent organizations. If they won't listen to the people who voted for them last time, then voting for them this time just tells them they can ignore you.

Sounds like Democracy is working as expected? The people want the death of American democracy, you should probably ask yourself why you are so keen on supporting it.
