    He can keep Congress in session for 365 days a year. If one party is hellbent on blocking literally everything, how can you get anything done?

    As for the alleged pretend effort, how do you know the hearts of the people putting forth these plans and policies? At least they’re doing something. Don’t mistake my sense of political reality with complacency.

    Also, the overturning of Roe is a direct consequence of people failing to elect Hillary Clinton in 2016. You can have your protest non-vote, but you have to live with the consequences (a stacked supreme Court). Remember, the pre-Trump court gave us Obergefell and Dobbs, so don’t act like Roe would be gone regardless of who won.

      Do you think the Republicans would still be hellbent on stopping everything if a president made them work for four years straight? I sure don’t.

      Also, Roe repeal was the direct result of Democrats running a shitty campaign and ignoring the poor, as is happening now, and we’re going to get the same result.
