    Who did nothing to push their nominations through? Who let RGB sit, despite her already being decrepit at 2016? Who did nothing at any point?

      How are you going to push candidates that you don’t have the votes to confirm? And how are you going to push RBG out?

        Obama had a supermajority and did fuck all with it. He let himself be hamstrung by the republicans and jerked off about “bipartisanship” - just like every other dem has been doing. RGB was convinced to stay in her seat so she could give it up under Hillary Clinton. She then decided to officiate a wedding under Trump where she got COVID and died like the dumbass she was.

                  You will never see the democratic party change. Voting for genociders only helps entrench genociders. Vote third party.

                So the ACA, ARRA, Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2009, Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, Credit CARD Act of 2009, Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act of 2009, Matthew Shepard and James Byrd Jr. Hate Crimes Prevention Act, SCHIP, and the Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act were fuck all. Roger that, shipmate.

                That’s not even to mention the repeal of Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell, which was passed without a supermajority.
