Fox News won’t bother mentioning this to their viewers.

      You’re doing exactly what the parent comments described. All you’re doing is crying when the ball is rolled as much as it can be while you’re (likely) kneecapping him because he doesn’t have a majority in the house.

        This is why Trump’s “dictator on day one” comment isn’t taken with the seriousness it needs to be.

        People already think presidents are dictators.

          Couldn’t agree more. There’s a huge misunderstanding that the President is the most important facet of government, but the Executive has remarkably little ability to influence the law aside from directing the various agencies on how they should operate and utilizing the power of veto to check the legislative.

          Trump won’t be a dictator on day one because that’s not how the office of President works. He will be, though, if Project 2025 is allowed to be implemented and they get rid of all the barriers to him having unilateral unchecked authority. This is also predicated on the possibility that he will not be held accountable by the courts and the Supreme Court rules that he can commit crimes and label them as “official acts”.

          The big misunderstanding is that people think Trump alone can fulfill all of his campaign promises and Biden simply won’t, when the reality is that Biden can’t do it alone and neither can Trump (yet).

      Is actively being thwarted by Republicans at every turn.

      Plus, things take time to happen, even under ideal circumstances.

        That’s fine. Go back to my OP, not organized enough, not supporting progressives enough. We don’t need a majority we need a super majority. You know, an impossible task.

      Bernie is going to die one day. Who will take on what he started?

          AOC is just going to do it all herself. Great. Love her though.

            Antiestablishmentarianism is a lonely road.
