You're not understanding me. Yes, the bill was awful and should not have had their support.
So given that, what exactly is the Republican justification for not supporting it? That needs to be highlighted so that perhaps enough GOP voters just stay home on election day - especially in swing states.
Like it or not, Republicans must not win this election so that our democracy survives. We will have lots of work to do after the election to push the Democrats back to supporting the average person and not the rich, but that's the next fight and not this one!
Hold your nose and vote for democracy.
Oh I understand you. I don't think you understand that voting for Democratics and criticizing them is more than OK, it is necessary.
I've been attempting to respond to your original comment. The Democrats are not using this to brag. They are using it to highlight the failures of the Republican party.
I walked around knocking on doors in an unfriendly neighborhood for Bernie Sanders, so you don't need to talk to me about criticizing Democrats or wanting them to move left.
This is the current climate of this discussion in most Democrat circles, whether you care to see it or not. And I'm not criticizing you, but thank you for knocking on doors. ✌️
You folks are shouting the same thing at each other.
