    Yeah one thing I’ve observed is Americans constantly complaining that Democrats aren’t doing anything. There’s a belief that the opposition party can somehow stop a party that controls all branches of government.

    They can’t. They no longer have power. Anything they do is completely performative. You’re complaining about a performance in a meaningless play while the people in power are dismantling your country and destroying people’s lives.

    This is what Americans voted for. Didn’t think their vote mattered but it really did.

      When Democrats have power they can’t do anything, when Republicans are in power everything they want done gets passed by Democrats.

      The Republicans had no problem stopping the show when they were the minority party in all branches.
