Except literally every time someone on the left points out the Dem leadership habit of inching in the right direction while not doing much to stop their fascist counterparts from yarding if not miling in the opposite.
What little progress conservative Democrats DO graciously deign to bestow on the unwashed masses is the equivalent of getting a 2% raise in a year where your unavoidable expenses such as food, shelter, and medicine rose by double digits.
That's not good. That's insufficient.
So give us more Democrats and you'll get more results. It's a simple question of mathematics. We can't pass laws unless you give us the numbers in Congress.
If they do their jobs well, they get rewarded with votes. It's a simple question of not inverting the relationship between the public servants and the public.
And people won't vote for you if you pass bad laws and/or do nothing with the mandate you're given. Which is what 90%+ of them do.
If they start actually helping people more, people will reward them. Giving them all they want in return for bad job performance isn't the motivator to do better you seem to think it is.
If they do their jobs well, they get rewarded with votes. It’s a simple question of not inverting the relationship between the public servants and the public.
Hard disagree. The public is not a monolith. It does not know what it wants, because most people want mutually exclusive things.
Holy paternalistic condescension, Batman! 😬🤦
