(55,409 posts)Republicans can get away with recklessly talking about 2nd amendment solutions" and so on, but seriously, why would legitimate government agents be trying hard to look like criminal kidnappers?
Actually, I think they *want* an armed confrontation. Gives them more of a pretense to impose martial law.

(6,189 posts)How are Democrats being negligent? Knowing that the Democrats do not control the levers of power in Congress, what exactly is the proposal or demand here?

(6,189 posts)* that the Democrats are "not doing" when in fact they ARE doing something. And attacks for the sake of shit-smearing that have no basis in reality with the expectation that the Democrats can wave a magic wand and take control of congress, and then FORCE the Republicans to vote with them.
It's just pure insanity. Who thinks like this, or who thinks that this constant smearing and denigration of Democrats and Democratic leadership is actually helping?
In reality, it creates division and suspicion and it weakens the Democrats... and this, in turn, helps the GOP, and Trump, and Russia.
PS: Thanks for the link. I'm sure it will be ignored and the gripes and shit-slinging will continue.

(166,143 posts)I do realize Dems are limited in what they can do but I sure do wish they were much louder with their disgust. I very much enjoyed reading about a Dem calling Stephen Miller "the biggest piece of shit", for example.
