No that's the problem we do.

When they want to do something they ram it through and ehn people complain they say "fuck you what are you gonna do about it" (tax cuts, anything republicans want, getting rid of roe)

When they dont actually want to do something they either make up bullshit excuses like some unelected obscure bean counter said no so we can't do it (budget reconcilliation) or if things get really dire they have just enough of them stop pretending to give a shit to stop whatever might happen (Lieberman, Manchin)

But as usual a dozen people all actually tried to explain and engage and good faith, and once again you completely ignored all of it and just insist "we don't know how government works"

Condescending lib piece of shit

Explain what? How you think government should work? ie. The president in this case should just pass the laws that I agree with. You folks are rancid.

You folks are rancid.

You made your account specifically to whine and cry at "you folks." You don't have to be here.
