63. I agree with you, but it was even before the election...As I have said before, THEY KNEW republicans WOULD

CHEAT, THEY KNEW what their 2025 plan was, but they did not do enough to protect the election, they did not do enough to campaign for people whose votes may have helped, like the Latino community. I know a lot of Latino people who became MAGAts because of all the weakness Democrats constantly show, they are sorry now, mostly when some of them are afraid some of their family and friends may get deported, but lets face it, people don't think ahead enough and if there is one thing republicans do very well is propaganda...Nazis were very good at propaganda as well.

Whoever said "Democrats need to stop coming to knife fights with a bible on hand" was correct, and it still applies. We have very few Democrats with enough "cojones" to tell it like it is, Bernie Sanders, an Independent is one, Alexandra Ocasio Cortez, Jamie Raskin, Adam Shiff, and a few others, the rest are going around talking about their "republicans friends who they admire", and like someone posted a couple of days ago "WHAT IS THERE TO ADMIRE ABOUT THESE CRIMINALS" who are helping the felon destroy the country? Until when are they going to go on with the hope republicans will become courageous and patriotic? ITS NOT GOING TO HAPPEN!

So, YES, a lot of us are frustrated with Democrats not doing what they need to do to fight the up and coming regime. I have always been interested in International politics, I have many friends from Venezuela so when Chavez came to power I kept up with what was going on there, and I see so much resemblance of what happened there with what is happening right now in the USA. On one side you have the crooks, the republicans, who may look incompetent because they are doing things we don't like and are opposite to governing, but that is not their agenda, and THEY ARE VERY COMPETENT at what they are doing, we just don't like it, and then on the other hand you have the Democrats complaining, pointing out "illegalities" which republicans ignore and don't give a crap about, but ZERO ACTION to fight the crooks. I saw that happen in Venezuela, the opposition would be on TV showing articles from the constitution that pointed out the illegalities, and the regime ignoring all of it..."Sticks & Stone Will Break My Bones But Words Will Never Hurt", and that is the motto of republicans, as long as they can proceed with their agenda, any complaints are ignored and invalid to them.
