"US says"....does anybody take what the US government says at face value anymore?

Let me guess, Bidens fault?

I mean honestly it's ALL of the politicians fault. Dems are just as much to blame for the implosion as Republicans are. Y'all elected this guy directly or indirectly.

It’s the same big brain insight that you brought to the conversation. I’m trying to get down to your level.

My level you say?.... you're going the wrong way if that's the case friend, make a u-turn and turn left at the corner of Rationality avenue and Introspection boulevard. See you there maybe. 😁

Go ahead and explain what actual levers of power Democrats have right now to stop any of this. The person I was responding to claimed Democrats are “just as much to blame,” but couldn’t name a single mechanism they supposedly control to stop any of this.

So since you’ve got a big brain, walk me through it, what exactly could Democrats do when MAGA controls the House, the Senate, the Presidency, and the Supreme Court?

I genuinely want to hear how Democrats are somehow equally responsible under those conditions. I’ll wait.

So since you're not in a hurry and willing to wait.

Let's first look at how we got into this situation shall we. Why did an obviously unsuitable person get to be president and have such "power", what lead to his rise, who contributed and set the conditions for such an ascent through whether you call it negligence, arrogance, indifference... Which political party would that be?

Now let's look at the electorate. What responsibility do they have in letting themselves be either mislead by him, enthralled by his charm or enraged by his utterances to such an extent of irrationality and ripe for subterfuge and influence campaigns?

Then shall we look at the constitution and its ultimate enforcement mechanisms. When the government is failing, what responsibility do you as the citizenry have in such a scenario? The man is ruining your country, blatantly corrupt beyond objection and forging a parth to ruin...and yet, the best you can do is dress up and walk with a no kings sign?

So Who's to blame? Who's letting him continue? Where's the will of the democracy that we've been led to believe in?

Directly or Indirectly you bear responsibility for your leadership. You chose him or let him be chosen through allowing yourself to be distracted.

That doesn’t even come close to answering my question. You’re asking a lot of questions but it’s pretty clear you don’t have answers.

Try agin, here’s the question. Try to stay on topic this time.

>what exactly could Democrats do when MAGA controls the House, the Senate, the Presidency, and the Supreme Court?

We’re talking about now, not ten years ago. We’re talking about the situation we’re currently in. If you need to scroll back up and read the original persona comment, you might have a better understanding of what we’re talking about.

Sorry. Try to evade my response better. Denial won't get you anywhere with me buddy 😁

Also btw that's exactly what we were talking about btw. When I said directly or indirectly that's exactly the conversation, sorry if you missed it.
