    It would be undemocratic for them to oppose what people voted for. Project 2025 was out there well it advance of the election, it was widely read and people voted for it. Too many people opposed to it sat on their thumbs and let it happen.

    The American people failed democracy. For decades people blamed the democrats for everything despite not voting for them. This allowed a fascist to take power. Instead of taking responsibility for this, y’all just continue blaming the democrats thinking it will accomplish something. It won’t.

    All branches of power are controlled by fascists now. There isn’t anything any politician can do to stop them. But yeah be angry at the political opposition for the voters making them powerless because you don’t know how to do anything else.

    I’m sure you’ll find a lot of allies among the fascists by hating on what’s left of the political opposition.

    The biggest mistake the voters made was thinking that their representative is in office to help improve their lives. In reality it was to improve their own stock portfolio, if they accidentally did something for the constituents that’s just icing on the cake.

    It benefits their personal interests as well, but they don’t have to do the dirty work. Just a little hand wringing.
