Oh give me a fucking break. It’s only been 3 months. You’re acting like it’s year 4.
What the fuck have you done the last 12 weeks? You’re never going to relent. I could show you Booker executing Trump on his knees and you’d go “well he should’ve acted sooner, the Do-Nothing-Democrat!”
Corey Booker has shut down the legislative branch for the entire day. What did you do today?
When you wrote this he was still going.
He is still going now at 7:45pm eastern.
He has stopped a full day of congress working and is still going.
He has literally stopped a nation’s legislative branch. But let me guess: Not enough?
Are all democrats the same?
So it was an empty room? You’re sure about that?
I get it’s edgy and cool to shit on people doing something other than whining on forums but maybe you should just shut the fuck up and contribute meaningfully to solving the problem instead of jeering from the sidelines?
So you don’t know
Where are you getting this notion that he is in there by himself talking to nobody?
OK now you’re actually acting as if the specific details of your off the cuff metaphor are somehow truly relevant to the discussion at hand or in any way explain this situation with any level of granularity, so I’ll hold you to that: explain to me how this is like what you just described. Talk to me about how Booker is supposed to do something like this, and what is wrong with the way he did it.
You say it accomplished little yet here we are all talking about it.
How much time and energy have you spent thinking about and talking about this subject today?
How many headlines are out there about it right now?
No not really actually. I see roadwork done at night all the time. They do it because there’s less need for the roads in the evening so blocking a lane or more is less impactful.
See? Sometimes these things have more nuance and logic than you might think at first glance.
Not all elected officials are the same.
I totally get that. It just annoyed me lol
I mean sure that could be the case. I didn’t say this was some slam dunk amazing move that’s going to move the needle in some obvious and substantial way.
His argument is that when somebody is performing their job, you generally assume they know what they are doing
If I see a construction worker using a jackhammer on the side of the interstate, yes I assume they know what they’re doing until I see evidence to the contrary.
What are you talking about? We have known for decades that indigenous communities in North America have way higher rates of addiction/alcoholism/etc. in their communities. It’s a huge fucking problem and they generally want help from the federal government
I understand how what they say could come across as racist, but you need to go look up this issue because it’s a very serious matter
6 in 10
Six in ten
I think it’s safe to assume he chose the time he did for a reason.
Stop shitposting and do something then troll
