Mega donors can't eat their money. The working class WILL get behind a strike, if they see support from the electeds.

Because Dems are complicit, that's why.

Not vote "Yes" on appointments.

None of Trump's appointees are good. If they were, they would refuse to serve under him.

The GOP needs every single person on their side to pass the nominations... Which rarely happen.

Why aren't the dems working whatever GOPers they can to say no? Or is that something only the GOP is allowed to do? Get Dems to defect?

I want Dems to start arming the working class. Like, empty the campaign coffers, and use it to buy guns, bullets, and butter for the working class.

How's that for a start?

They can obstruct. And they aren't even doing that.

They can radicalize people to resist the tyrant.

They can do an awful lot with that Bully Pulpit they all have, by nature of their office.

So...

What are the Dems doing, to combat this? I'm seeing very little action.

Nothing like the very highly reliable pharmaceutical "science" done in the US, amirite?

Its not like we ever had "science" come from the US that said an extremely powerful opioid wasn't addictive, amirite?

I suppose we'll need to worry about that, once we get a net positive output from a fusion reactor.

Yeah, I'm not going to bother with a source from a capitalist... Sorry. I'll just go with the facts: The US was pretty much the only ones who could rebuild Europe... Eveyrone else had their entire industries flattened.

It wasn't about cutting taxes. It was about "Unleashing the market"... Those are oligarch talking points, to try and convince us to let them be Robber Barons again.

Pretty sure all of Europe needing to be rebuilt, and the US having the only working industrial sector had a huge thing to with it...

Not slashing taxes... taxes were at their highest in the 60s.
