Let's see some actual movement on issues that impact American citizens in our day to day lives. They should actually have to do something to earn your vote.

The Democrats have only the House, barely the Senate and Biden has inherited Trump’s mess. What money have the Democrats given abroad? What country on the planet isn’t facing sky high inflation?

If you want movement, blame the GOP (including Manchin and Sinema) who refuse to do anything. I actually suspect that you’re just a right wing troll because most Democrats can look at everything the GOP has blocked and understand why so little movement has been made. The GOP just tried to overthrow the government not two years ago and just now their religious tribunal has decided that women aren’t people because we haven’t always had rights. If you can’t be bothered to go look at the Democrats’ platform - i.e. what they would accomplish if the opposition wasn’t a bag of greasy misogynist treasonists - maybe just don’t vote, right winger.


…so many excuses for not getting anything done…


not getting anything done?

-Record job recovery and creation
-unemployment at historic lows
-COVID is under control (yes people still get it but our hospitals are not being overrun anymore)
-NATO has never been stronger
-We are out of Afghanistan
-Negotiations with Iran are ongoing
-Infrastructure bill passed (something the GOP couldn't do with the executive and both houses of congress)

^^^ these aren't nothing.

Birth control, not even abortion, is on the ballot this fall.

Just keep voting Republican. Do they have a plan for you! But unfortunately 45% of Americans want this.


Missing the most important one..

If you don’t want to have democracy- vote republicans in…just one. More.time.


That’s the actual issue here. We are way beyond any normal differences in policy.


That’s exactly the point.

Well, Republicans don’t give a shit about the environment, so you’re functionally a Democrat.


Unpragmatic and shortsighted.
As much as I support the green agenda and as much as I have been an environmental activist for 30 years, splitting the ticket and voting green against blue will only hand red an assured victory and set the green agenda even farther back.


I've been a Sierra Club member since the 1980s, and participated in so many protests I can't even count, like picketing Home Depot over products old growth forests in the 1990s, participated in the Global Climate March, DAPL protests, Science March and many many more. The first goal has to be defeating the right. As long as we keep letting them win we will get nowhere at all. We can work with Democrats and get things done. But the right wing is owned by fossil fuel and will never operate in good faith. I won't vote green party in any national election until the right is defeated.

Then you’re hollow, a tourist, more frustrating than the conservatives because you larp as a progressive.
The corporate owned “moderates” are as guilty as republicans in dragging this county down and as for me I just won’t have any part of it. My conscience isn’t for sale.


You harm the good when you pursue perfection at all costs. Go ahead and wallow in your righteousness that accomplishes nothing. It doesn’t make you superior.

If you want them to do things of real value, vote out the GOP Senators and House members that block all legislation regardless of the benefits and refuse to even try to compromise.

Thank you!!


And that will never happen because it's a useful business to keep folks as yourselves voting a 2 party system convinced you're fighting against something. Not realizing it refusing to see the truth. That neither Democrat or Republican , right or left benefits this country they exist not to serve and improve our lives but to create artificial strife and division while they line their pockets and behind the scenes are best friends and their little puppets dance in the streets.

A fact you would think green/third party voters would have figured out after the twin disasters of Nader and Stein/Sanders.
