    Trump did executive orders and judges which is a 50 + 1 type of thing. Nothing that required congress and senate power

    The fillibuster means that nothing meaningful will come out of the legislative as long as one party arent acting like partisan hacks (tje gop)

    Basically see it at 10 second mark.
    Damn, that is some strong Girlboss energy. I love equally how her press secretary defended her, proving for the 20,000th time how effortlessly that idpol jargon can be used by its real masters. Krysten Sinema is the future of the DNC. She is what the party aspires to be in every way and will be what is vociferously supported every two years, even by people who momentarily don't like her.

    The only major legislation that was passed was the Tax Cut bill and that was only because the donors were literally about to pull all their funding for 2018 (no joke that is the only reason and why it was so rushed it needed an errata list because it was so hastily drafted).

    The rest of the time was spent on the Republicans outsourcing their legislative responsibilities to the judicial branch by appointing judges basically stolen from Obama. Note the lack of legislation by Republicans isn't a bug but a feature which is why they spent so much time and political capital on judicial nominees. Republicans believe outside of tax cuts and deregulation there should be basically no government interference, but that is not popular, so better to spend more time to have people who can strike down government action, has a lifetime appointment and can't be recalled by voters.

    This is what happens when you elect people who don't believe in government to the government...

    Get ready mate, you all will fall in line, Vote Blue no Matter Who and forgive her in about five minutes, Sen. Sinema is the baseline normal Democrat.

    When she is up for re-election you'll be backing her, so will everyone criticizing her.

    Plus as we learned; its sexist to criticize her:

    Leave Theo alone! We all know what she is doing.

    Her reply to my post is laughable. All I have to say.

    For about the next 8-10 or so years but once the boomers start to come the end of their natural lifespan things are going to snap back dramatically. The reason we are so far to the right is because money is power in politics and most of the money is in the hands of the oldest generation who still has a Reagan/Cold War mindset.

    What does "Overemphasis" even mean, how would you quantify that?

    The fact that she basically looked, and acted, as a villain from that Hunger Games movie is mostly what people comment on. But hey, she is the future of the DNC.

    Uh huh, which is why the newer Democratic Senator from Arizona voted in favor of the minimum wage increase.

    It is absurd to divide people into good and bad. People are either charming or tedious.

    You might think so, but those wretches taught the next generation how to screw others. They dont just want to screw people in their lifetime, they want their legacy to live on.

    I cannot wait for her seat to be up and for many here to strongly advocate re-electing her for Harm Reduction and some schlop of Intersectional Jargon.

    Or we could just primary her ass since it's clear Arizonans will actually vote for a Democrat who isn't a former Green Party grifter. You're not good at this.

    See guys? You will be backing Krysten Sinema soon enough. The alternative is literal Hitler. So go ahead, roleplay as if you are upset, or save yourself the energy and just support her for dabbing on the Bernie Bros you all hate with a red hot passion. She is the star of your party, she is its future.

    Pretend to care. After all your golden idol worshippers don't believe that you have a place in this country.
    Which begs the question; why are you even here to begin with?
