The Democrats keep turning up to the dawn duel with a sword as agreed, while the Republicans turn up with a pistol because fuck the rules. Then the Democrats say "no, no, I'll continue with the sword because that's the rules", get slaughtered, and then wonder what went wrong. One day I hope they'll realise you can't beat an opponent who's not even playing the game.
Hell, they’re turning up to a knife fight with a deck of cards, and the Republicans are bringing fucking Uzis. The DNC is fully a joke at this point. Sure, they suck (marginally) less than the GOP at actually governing, but they couldn’t fight their way out of a paper bag - nor do they appear to be interested in fighting their way out of said paper bag. It’s fucking embarrassing.
It's like it's intentional at this point.
It’s getting harder and harder to disagree with that statement
They bring swords and stick to swords cause this is what wins them the respect of the well educated, intelligent voterbase.
Bit that voterbase is a tiny minority and the rest are too stupid to understand why bringing a sword to a swordfight matters in a first world nation.
