So their agenda is restore the status quo. I had hoped maybe there would be more ambition than that.
For the first 100 days, restoring the status quo is already going to be a tall order given they’ll have opposition every step along the way. Fixing the damage needs to happen first and foremost before being able to progressing positive new change. Even if Dems somehow sweep both the house and Senate they still have to deal with Trump vetoing bills and such unless they miraculously win a super majority. They should at least be able to block his EOs and mitigate more damage though.
They can also fuck with Trump’s funding.
I’d love to see them play hardball and do things like, “No budget will be passed and no money will be available for anything until ICE is abolished and disbanded” … but I’m pretty sure they don’t have the balls to even try that.
Why do you think he’s diversified his grift and stole as much money as he could in the first 2 years of his term?
Honestly if they could just undo the damage Trump has done, I would call it a win. Part of how we got here in the first place was never fixing the illegal wars, gulags, and other abuses of power under bush and trump. If you don’t fix them, they just keep building on each other, and any other initiative you succeed in building will quickly be destroyed by an ever more powerful fascist state.
reversing Republican Medicaid cuts,
So just for example, on that, if that’s all they try to do then they’ve failed. It’s not enough anymore to simply reverse it, they need to actually fix it by implementing actual universal coverage via Medicare for all, or NHS, or a German SHI. They need to actually stand for something other than the old bullshit status quo to win.
I truly think a system like the German model has a chance to succeed in the US without causing so many knock-on effects that there’s immediate backlash. I know Medicare For All is the catchier phrase but I’m surprised so few even mention Germany as a possible US model.
oh really so you’re not going to vote dem?
me thinks you are just as much the problem here
reinstating Affordable Care Act tax breaks, reversing Republican Medicaid cuts, holding votes against the Iran war and undoing President Donald Trump’s tariff regime.
I just lost my job to AI after 20 years. Losing Affordable Care Act coverage would limit my ability to study for the exam I need to pass to get a better job in the same field. It sounds pretty damn good from here.
Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries, who is in line to become House speaker if the party wins power, said the Democrats will be united “right out of the gate” on reinstating Affordable Care Act tax breaks, reversing Republican Medicaid cuts, holding votes against the Iran war and undoing President Donald Trump’s tariff regime.
Saved ya a click. If people find more then I did please share if you will.
Narrator: And the people did give them the power, sadly once again they did nothing with it and as a direct consequence, the corruption and societal decline accelerated.
