Democrats reintroduce Equality Act as Trump escalates war on LGBTQ+ community
With LGBTQ+ rights under attack by the Trump administration and Republican-led states, Democrats say the Equality Act is more urgent than ever.
You're viewing a single thread.
Its all a show, this bill has no chance of passing and they know this. The Democrat resistance is nothing more than smoke and pretty words.
I mean, yeah, what else are they supposed to do at this point, you took them out of every lever of power.
Don't get me wrong I think the Democrats failed as much for the next guy but getting mad at them now after you've prevented them from doing anything at all just seems petty.
what else are they supposed to do at this point
Pull from the GOP playbook.
Obstruct everything. Shut down the government. Make unholy stinks on the floor of the House parading around big blown up pictures of dead women and summon mobs of angry constituents into the halls of Congress to yell at people. Tap the Blue State governors and legislatures to push radical pro-women policies, reject federal money whenever it comes with anti-abortion strings attached, and force local businesses to toe the party line if they want to interface with state governments. Make the lives of anti-abortion groups in the state hellish by running strings of investigations that seek to scandalmonger them. Lean on the press to focus on the havoc that these anti-abortion laws are causing. Run Project Veritas operations on those Anti-Abortion front groups that exist to profit off adoption services. Have the police surround and intimidate anti-abortion activist groups, while pro-choice groups are free to block the entrances to buildings, harass staff, and generally make any anti-abortion activist in the state fear for their lives.
Maybe start with voting no on the new censorship bill that just passed with unanimous consent that Trump specifically said he will abuse to silence people.
I mean they have so many options to move in any direction other than their shoulders up in a shrug.
valid.
This is how the Democrats communicate their values and intentions. And 30, 40, 100 years ago it would have worked, because the public looked for alternative solutions to problems. Today, the public wants a bully to assertively stand on camera and yell at them. The Democrats don't do that, and it's to their detriment.
But the time for all of this has passed, they're rearranging deck chairs.
but getting mad at them now after you’ve prevented them from doing anything at all just seems petty.
It would seem to be a trend.
Farts and good intentions
