    It’s because Biden and the rest of the octogenarian neo-liberals have been used to hanging out with their political rivals and playing like it’s a game TV wrestling.

    I kept thinking Jan 6th almost resulting in their literal lynchings by that insurrectionist mob would have snapped the beltway folks into focusing immediately on what they need to be doing right now, but Biden and the rest still act like Mitt Romney, John McCain, and even Mitch McConnell are the overwhelming majority of Rs in power. I don’t think Biden and many of these other old fucks realize how many Marjorie Taylor Greene’s and Lauren Boebert’s and Matt Gates there are in positions of power now.

    They will literally end their political enemies’ lives if they get back in full control of all 3 branches this time.

      It’d be fucking awesome if the Democratic Party leadership would realize that it’s not poker anymore and that bringing a deck of cards to a gunfight is going to make you lose the gunfight.
