House Democratic lawmakers reportedly used a closed-door meeting earlier this week to vent their frustrations with progressive advocacy groups that have been driving constituent calls and pressuring the party to act like a genuine opposition force in the face of the Trump administration’s authoritarian assault on federal agencies and key programs.
Because we gave them the means to pass legislation without a single Republican vote. That was their chance. They used that chance as you wanted, and so you’re making excuses for them.
If you can’t break filibuster then you can’t pass anything without the opposition’s graces. The thing about progressives vs conservatives is the progressives have to pass things but conservatives win when nothing happens, and conservatives have been winning for many years.
You could change the senate rules with 50. Stop using the filibuster as an excuse.
The DNC didnt even have 50 in the last decade.
