Thanks to a Republican vote to stop California from setting its own auto emissions, Democrats can challenge virtually any Trump administration action, and eat up time on the Senate floor.

    No lol we support a different party.

    If Democrats want votes they can start acting like it.

    I’m not going to do their fucking jobs for them, i have my own job i have to worry about.

      I think you’re reading too much into the “line up” part of my post. I should’ve wrote gang up, as I do not intend to indicate that you or I need to align with them.

        What you are saying is that we tell out representatives what we want.

        We have been doing that the whole time, they ignore their voters.

          The American population generally speaking is not politically engaged. They have the idea – one you appear to share – that civic engagement is a chore that they don’t have time for and that it’s someone else’s job.

          So, continue doing nothing and pretending you’ve tried everything.

            That’s a deliberate feature. Keep people so concerned about basic survival that they don’t have the time or energy for civic engagement.
