Eh, the Democrats are dumb but we know it's sort of a false dichotomy. The US government can definitely spend on both things.

If Biden were actively thwarting money to fund Ukraine and using exec orders to get baby formula to infants, Greene and Tracey would be arguing the complete opposite positions.

You don't ever have to hand it to them. Fascists don't have beliefs, they have tactics.

About the truckers: look at the demographics who actually work as truckers and look at the protesters

Then check how many of those trucks have interprovincial or interstate shipping tags

subpoenas are just gentle requests. like asking your mom if you can have a treat. if she says no then you can throw a tantrum but that's it.

yeah remember when people blocked highways during blm. good way to get teargassed and a rubber bullet to the head or worse

if the canadian government then passed laws that made it even more impossible to strike, that was opportunism and not because the truckers were seriously challenging power

You don't even have to go that far afield to see the counter example, the first nations peoples in British Columbia who were protesting the logging of old growth forest by blocking the road had hundreds of RCMP stormtroopers busting heads and making arrests

The fact is that's likely true. The poo poo that makes Trump bad is the same poo poo that led him to actually do things and in this case it's not looking like a loser who can't do anything. The bad part is that some of those things he did are objectively bad but one cannot deny that sometimes inaction is the worst course and likewise one cannot deny that the democrats are only capable of inaction.

It's not a situation I relish, trapped between someone like Trump on the one hand who can and will "do things" or the dems who won't but if that's the choice and your life sucks and keeps getting worse, there's no logic in sticking with the side which will definitely do nothing. Nothing is how you got here--at least something, even if it's worse, moves things along to something else which might be escapable. Doing nothing condemns you to declining material conditions definitionally.

Donald J Trump posted:

The Democrats are sending another $40 billion to Ukraine, yet America's parents are struggling to even feed their children. There is a massive formula shortage, but no one is talking about it—it is a national disgrace. It is unthinkable that in the year 2022 American families are unable to get baby formulas for their children. Families whose children have serious allergies and require "elemental" formula are in even more desperate and dire straits. The pain that mothers and fathers are going through who literally cannot get nutrition for their newborns and infants is a mark of eternal shame on the Democrat Party. America First!

Compare that to what Mayo Pete said

It's because Trump wants to be liked, while Dems just want you to dislike somebody else more than you dislike them.

There are cults of personality today that have popped up around people like Hillary, Kamala, Mayor Pete etc. but they will never understand the enthusiasm for someone like Trump, no matter how hard they try.

aye, and let’s not forget that fetterman has already publicly and sloppily kissed the DMFI ring too. not that everything has to be an I/p thing, but that is absolutely a dire harbinger of forthcoming succ.

there is legitimate pleasure to be had though. Connor lamb ate poo poo, and we can feel good about that at least. if we’re lucky, fetterman will show up to the senate in shorts and showing his tattoos and really give Dianne Feinstein the vapors.

but yeah, realistically he’s on the classic bernie sanders path of a seemingly well-meaning and effective mayor of a forgotten American town who now has a national stage as a us senator. lmao

and summer Lee didn’t kiss the Israel ring, which is insubordinate and churlish, so Dems will probably have to support her Republican opponent
