      It’s an attempt to deflect and downplay the damage currently being done by saying “oh but both parties ran 80yr olds” as if that’s the problem and we don’t have an army of 50yr old fascists eager to take center stage.

        None of this damage could be done without Democratic help. They could have used the “nuclear option” when Biden was President, for example. Trent Lott ® started calling it “nuclear option” in 2000s, and bOtH sIdEs adopted the term quickly because it scares the proles half to death.

        It’s a simple majority vote, a parliamentary rule. Before Trent Lott ®, it was called “the constitutional option.”

        Democrats are playing good cops, open your eyes and see. They are all looting us right now.

        Please vote! I do too, but you should know the Ds won’t save us.
