    Please explain your grand strategy for passing meaningful legislation while the GOP controls a house of Congress. How exactly do Democrats pass aid to Ukraine?

    You know how you move the Overton window back? Remove conservatives from Congress. You do that by winning elections. And you don’t do that by SOLEY denigrating the only party we can actually capture and use to our advantage. You aren’t helping the cause you supposedly support. You’re just doing damage, not offering a single workable alternative solution, and throwing a temper tantrum. Saying “Democrats bad” over and over, while again not offering any real criticism of the GOP or a better solution, is precisely what a Republican would do.

    Moderates control the party because they made specific strategic decisions to capture, grow, and maintain that power over many elections. We have to do the EXACT. SAME. THING. If you aren’t willing to support that, just admit you’d rather have moderates or conservatives in charge.

      Ahh yes, the classic, “please present a perfect solution if you want to complain about something.”

      Pathetic is the correct word for you. Stop making excuses for people that aren’t even trying. You talk as if Republicans have all the power… and they do. Because Democrats fundamentally do not know how to use it.

      Keep cheering on losers, though. It seems to be what this country loves on both sides of the aisle…

        You can’t even provide a single solution or explain why mine is flawed. You’re acting as though every single elected Democrat is some moderate incapable of correctly welding power. That’s nonsense. I’m talking about getting rid of those that aren’t working on our behalf and you want to cry like a child to make yourself feel good and get attention.
