Trump white house just posted " 2 kings" and these people still trying to pass fake bills?
The people of the US need to woke up before it is too late if they want their democracy back, otherwise they can accept the new kingdom.
I am not sure what he will call it, maybe just Trump
any other bill then to solve the current crises, they are banking on the problems snowballing so they get elected over the gop. it was the same thing senator warren/kloubacher did a useless "flag lesgislation"
Telling voters what to expect, if voters give Democrats power, is not "fake bills". What do you want, for Democrats to not tell voters what they would pass, if given power?
After decades of lies, you'll have to excuse the skepticism of people who have been paying attention.
They will be talking about this bill being shut down by Republicans for the next 20 years. They will talk about how improper it would be to reintroduce the bill after it was voted down. If they are ever in power they will point to this failed bill whenever the min wage comes up. They know that it will never pass, that's why it's being done now.
Democrats have not had a filibuster-proof majority for almost 20 years.
Sometimes I think Americans don't know how democracy works. You can't blame a party for not passing stuff, if you don't give that party the power to pass stuff.
Stop using the filibuster as an excuse for democrats blocking what you want blocked. They could have ended the filibuster for good with a simple majority any time they had one.
Sometimes I wish the genocide wing could come up with a new way to gaslight people who say things they don't want to hear.
As not an american I am almost certain you don't know how a real democracy works. A two party system is not democratic and majority are not healthy long term, if you want proof look at the us and the uk more recently. Coalitions are common and more democratic the world over.
Uhh that would require them to try this shit when in power, which they don't do.

Wild how republicans can enact the most heinous shit then huh
Examples please?
waves hands around America
I am blaming them for only bringing this up and pushing it when Republicans are in power. Reading comprehension is hard sometimes.
