Disgusting. You engaged in political gamesmanship using them as pawns knowing they would get harmed and now you question *their* patriotism because some of them aren't wealthy like you and didn't want to work a high stress job for no pay?

They take empathy as an act of war and the fact they aren't actively perceiving aggression weans it's an act of war from an enemy that they perceive as weak, which means empathy makes them want to fight back.
They need to know we're simply stronger than them and hate them more than they can imagine.

It's important to keep using very simple, plain language, so that everyone realizes the level of absolute authoritarian & anti-democratic nonsense that we put up with every day in our broken political system. This stuff doesn't happen in any other actual rich democracy that we view as a peer.
Remarkable that she lost over 10% of the term she was elected to serve for no legitimate reason. Absolutely should not be able to happen.

US senators will say anything. "Standing up to donald trump gave him more power." No it didn't. That isn't true.

Their political philosophy hinges on a vision of white supremacy in which people who aren’t white are here at the privilege of white people, which they can revoke at any time, which they expect to be received with gratitude.
Trump on Ilhan Omar: "I look at somebody who comes from Somalia...and she comes in and tells us how to run our country. 'The Constitution says this, the Constitution says that.' The whole thing is crazy."

This is actually good spin, or would have been. But the fact that the Democratic cave happened without even a coordinated, agreed-upon message like this indicates the depth of the leadership void.

“If Jeanne Shaheen or Angus King, or ideally just Chuck Schumer, went to the mics and said: We have tried everything we can to make Republicans give you back your health care. They refuse to do so. The only way you’re going to get your health care back is to elect Democrats.”
Now that Dems have capitulated, at the very least they should now make every future extension of funding contingent on Trump following the law. Any lawbreaking must be met with: No more votes from us, period.

This seems like the most straightforward and also basically accurate message.
instead of saying this was good strategy, maybe senate dems should say: "the republicans were going to kill people by starving them to death, and because we aren't monsters, we decided to let this fight go. We'll keep fighting. Stop electing monsters."

As for this being a "turning point," they don't understand that there's a real possibility that there won't be a second chance.
Trump's already gearing up to interfere with, if not suspend outright, the 2026 election. If the GOP keeps its Congressional majorities, Trump becomes a de facto king.

I've noticed the opposing team's fans only cheer when the opponents score on us. To win those fans over, I recommend we score on ourselves repeatedly; that will surely make them so happy they'll start supporting us. And I'm sure all our fans will keep cheering for us—who else is there to cheer for?

Negotiating 101: Be willing to walk away.
It increasingly seems like the Democratic defectors came to a resolution just because they felt like they should come up with something after having worked at it for a while.
In terms of classic blunders, this is land war in Asia-level.

"Are there even any-" it doesn't matter. Banning the few trans athletes isn't the point. The point, from Trump's ban on trans people in government to Britain's bathroom ban to Newsom's sports ban, is to make sure everyone knows trans women are OTHER and to act accordingly to us in their daily lives.

I think this is absolutely right. They memorized the lessons of that era — triangulation, bipartisanship, government is somehow shameful — and can’t adapt to the very different world we’re now in.
IMHO, most of the Dem leadership came up through the ranks during the Reagan years and started getting seniority during the 1994 shellacking so a fighting retreat is their standard tactic. They don’t do brinksmanship well.

The people were on our side. We were building momentum to help save our democracy. We could have won - the premium increase notices were just starting.
And giving in now will embolden him. Things will likely get worse.
