It's the Republican Party.<br /><br />Strongman Trump is just (one of) the most Republican politicians that the country has ever seen.Cinesiashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14996950964848333121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11363027.post-47409363317394842022019-05-15T14:54:17.362-05:002019-05-15T14:54:17.362-05:00If Joe had been a member of the SD party in the R...If Joe had been a member of the SD party in the Reichtag in 1933 he probably would have voted against the Enabling Act.

We need a Democrat who wants to fight the Republican Party at every opportunity, which is a requirement if we want to stop this country from being taken over by fascists and their right-wing authoritarian collaborators.

For 8 years only to peak with Senate changing the SCOTUS seat number from 9 to 8.<br /><br />Like Senator Lehey (a very fine democratic Senator) after GOP majority trampling of any norms to extremely expedite their (GOP) Judges agenda..<br />Knowing fully how they (the GOP) treated the Dems when they were in the minority of confirmations. GOP went ruthless and disregarded the existence of Democratic Senators. So GOP knew there might be pay back from the minority filibuster as they were now in the majority.<br /><br />When Dems took back Senate, Lehey longing for norms and respect of the past, re implemented the filibuster and the Senator Blue chip approval for judges so the GOP minority could have a say. When GOP took Senate back, they siad fuck you Lahey.<br /><br />My concern Biden would bend over for GOP. Like he has done in the past.<br /><br />Biden likes to say as some do, he has republican friends he made over the years.<br />That friendship has left democratic voters losing out because Biden's bipartisanship that favored GOP.<br /><br />Biden is very familiar with Congressional rules and has many connections.<br /><br />The question is, Biden needs to tell me somehow, (smoke signal?). Will he give up his political wealth from winning. Over to the GOP for some sort of promise of decency?<br /><br />Which Dem candidate can go full unitary president so we can finally cause the media to finally be correct by saying well, both sides do it (the it being a unitary president/ dictator).<br /><br />Be a CEO president and fire Sen McConnell if he gets out of line and doesn;t be the company team player.<br /><br />You know, crap like that.<br /><br />Robthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15736678459663803707noreply@blogger.com
