After Trump the first time, the Democrats had a real chance to clean shit up and seal the deal for GENERATIONS. They had a majority, they could passed a higher minimum wage (at least the 15 people have been protesting for since... 2000? 2010?), universal healthcare, taxes for billionaires, busting up monopolies, and everything else FDR would have agreed with without hesitation. SOMETHING, at least. A few years of this would have been amazing for our consumer economy, consumers are important.
But no, they'd rather humiliate everyone who voted for him; sure, he wasn't as bad as Trump. Good job you shithead, how hard was that? Was your 50 years of experience not enough to know how to "beat the system", all of the ins and outs? Where's your wisdom, old man?
The entire last 10 years have been embarrassing to every American, in my opinion, bOtH sIdEs and all that
