Absolutely correct
American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.

one of the funniest parts about Joyce Carol Oates going viral for nuking Elon Musk is that he absolutely needed someone tell him who Joyce Carol Oates is

Found the tweet that Joyce Carol Oates bodied Elon Musk with and it's so beautiful in its eloquent, simple take down. So much so he's crashing out trying to prove he reads books now. Put this in the Louvre.

The centrists in the Senate Democratic caucus saw that the country was rallying to the party in the 2025 elections and resolved that they would do anything they could to kill that momentum.

On Tuesday, Americans sent Democrats a resounding message.

“Fight for us”

“Fight for working class Americans”

“Fight against Trump’s corruption, criminality and cruelty”

5 days later, Democrat Senators sent Americans a resounding message.

“Nah”

After their resounding victory in Tuesday’s elections, the Democrats had no choice but to surrender.

The only thing Senate Democrats should be agreeing to is an extension of the enhanced premium tax credits under the Affordable Care Act (ACA) for millions of Americans buying plans on the health exchanges and releasing the Trump-Epstein files.

They caved. Senate Democrats caved. Their voters demanded just one very simple thing: FIGHT. Dammit, just FIGHT. Instead, they caved.

What Democratic voter is excited about the Democratic vote to reopen the government without guarantees on the ACA?

Let me know.

This is really good to see: Miki Sherrill just put out a statement sharply criticizing the Senate Dems' pending cave in the government shutdown, ripping it as "malpractice" and a betrayal of the people who are "counting on us to fight for them." Sherrill knows what drove her victory. Wake up, Dems.

My family has been without half our income for 40 days. It has been.. very hard.

We are willing to feel that pain so people can have health care next year, or to undo these illegal recissions.

We are not willing to have been put through this for NOTHING.

They've done nothing since January 6th. They could have stopped all of this by refusing to certify the election on the grounds of the 14th Amendment. The Supreme Court already accepted Colorado's conclusion that Trump is an insurrectionist, but said only Congress can enforce the 14th.

After all the wins on Nov 4, immediate capitulation in the Senate is an unconscionable failure of democrat leadership.

This is humiliating for every person who showed up for NO KINGS, everyone who voted last Tuesday, everyone who stands up to ICE, every judge who has held the legal line, every small town person who stands up week after week in their red rural area with their signs saying “Vote Blue”. YOU LET US DOWN
