I’ve seen the need to point this out: Dems have had all 3 (of house, senate, presidency) for 4 years out of the last 24 years. If you include Bill Clinton that goes to 6 years of the last 32 years. Want to add Bush senior? Then it’s 6 years of the last 36 years. Want to add Reagan? Then it’s 6 years of the last 44 years. That’s right, 6 years out of the last 44 years that Dems had control. And for filibuster proof majority they had 4 months of the last 44 years. Not years, 4 MONTHS of the last 44 fucking years.
And you want to ask why things haven’t happened?
If you want progress, give Dems consistent and overwhelming victories.
If you’re happy with being hungry for hours before being given anything to eat, then good for you I guess? We can do better. Being kept hungry and given crumbs isn’t healthy, it’s positively abusive.
Yes. Being better than Trump is a low bar.
Are you confused about what’s happening here?
It would be nice if we actually had policies we could champion instead of just “not Trump”.

Honestly, no, it’s not. We should have had those things decades ago.

I’m not going to praise someone for doing something that should have and could have been done decades ago, no.

So once the perfect moment has passed, might as well never try to catch up.
This is like blaming Obama for his terrible response to Katrina.
That should be the bare minimum. Crumbs.

That’s it? That’s all he’s supposed to do while millions are still struggling?
Single mom: “I’m working three jobs and my kids are still hungry. We’re about to be homeless.”
“Hey now, Paris climate agreement! Be grateful!”

You’re right, everything is really great right now in America. Nothing else to see here folks. Everybody’s swimming in gold.
Ignore the nearly 60% of people living paycheck to paycheck.
