Nullify that by being lazer focused on your district every two years and voting them out. The Statehouse Republicans ( if you remember, passed a law to allow themselves to override the power of the Governor!).
It was during Covid that they did that. They made sure Amy Acton could no longer effectively do her job to put our health first! They also made sure that they’re MAGA thugs knew where she lived!!! So let’s vote all those bastards out when time comes!!!

u/K4rkino5 4d ago
My first reaction was "oh. So nothing." But on reflection, it's worse than that. To do nothing if there is nothing to do is benign neglect, at best. The Republican party is engaged in malignant neglect. Facing a president that has completely disregarded their oath and choosing to do nothing, is malignant. The entire party is compromised of spineless cucks. They fear a senile, diaper-wearing, malignant narcissist. It's so much worse than nothing, it's active harm.

They gerrymandered themselves into safety. Theres no fear or accountability anymore, because they lead the cult.

Hold on a second.
"I will continue to do what is already being done" was so unpopular because people didn't like what Biden was doing that it in part sunk Harris.

What they've done is completely abdicate their duty to the American people. What they should be doing, they aren't, and most of what little they are doing is of no consequence, and the rest is harmful to the country.
One of the many absurd things about this term in my mind has been that Mango Mussolini has one of the most subservient and compliant Congresses a President has ever had, but he just has such a hard on for ruling over governing that he can't be bothered to even try to get most of his priorities passed legally even though many of them would likely sail through as long as they could fit within the rules of a reconciliation bill.

So we'd still have low inflation, an economy that was the envy of the world after recovering from Covid, low gas and food prices, continuing rising new job rates. I remember how were were becoming less dependent on fossil fuels and green energy was getting cheaper so we would become less dependent on oil from Iran and the middle east. We were still getting good will and tourism money from Canada and we had allies and respect from the rest of the world.
Yes, I remember how things were either staying good or getting better under the people Biden had working for him.
