Seriously? Seriously! This man’s evil (I don’t use that word lightly) knows no bounds. It’s cold, people are hungry & it’s holiday season.
Meanwhile this MFer sits at Mar-a-Lago eating everything he can stuff into his fat bald head. I try not to hate but damn he makes it so easy to despise him.

The reason people think the Democratic Party doesn't actually stand for anything is because it doesn't.

Wtf? Kaine knows better. There is one thing Dems can learn from repugnantans and that is to know when to stick together.
Kaine on why he thinks just getting a vote on healthcare is a win: "We're the minority party, but everybody will get to see who is standing for them when it comes to lowering their healthcare costs"

I get angry with dems at times because I expect better out of them. I dont expect an ounce of decency, decorum, or dignity out of the gop. I'll always fight to elect democrats period. Repubs are the culprits for this mess we are in, however I'm tired of dems always having to save the day.

Absolutely correct
American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.

80% of Democratic voters want a new leader in the Senate.

Our political system is fundamentally broken. It was not designed to represent the will of the people and it is incapable of doing so today.
The people don't want a king. The people don't want Democrats to surrender. The people don't want only two parties.
The people don't want any of this.

Dem US Senate Candidate Tucker Favreau on last night's "deal."
Favreau is running to represent Maine in place of Susan Collins.
Once again, I find myself agreeing with Tucker on this whole deal, and folks sacrifices seemingly being disregarded.

A promise of a vote is worth absolutely nothing with this administration. A retreat here without actual progress on healthcare subsidies is a betrayal of the people who have actually been enduring the shutdown so far. Democrats need an actual backbone.

This “deal” in the Senate is a surrender to GOP extremists. Sad day for the Democratic Party and our country.
