What a mov of spinelss shits.
If they want to say they're sorry, there are more meaningful ways: resignation, or better yet, seppuku. Self-immolation is not recommended since it adds to air pollution.

Wow who could have seen this one coming from 6 months away? Certainly not everyone except establishment Democrats.
Primary these useless fuckers.
It's far too late to put up a fight now, establishment dems. We needed that 6 months ago.
She shot a puppy for acting like a puppy.
What part of that makes you think she's a sane and rational human being able to run a huge government organization and not want to cause harm to fellow humans?
She's fucking broken just like the rest of them.
I can’t even read this shit anymore. I’m almost more furious with the Democrats than the republicans at this point. Every single nominee should have been a knock-down, drag-out fight. We’d be better off with an empty cabinet than the array of lickspittles and lunatics in there now.
It’s really bad when Tulsi Gabbard is one of the only trustworthy people in the administration.
Who knew the Meth Gnome aka Noem who is a piece of shit, nominated by a piece of shit; would be a piece of shit?
Senators upset that the giant douche they voted for is a giant douche.
What fools. Don’t they have any idea?
Too fucking bad.
Your regret is worth no more than any regret expressed by US voters who voted for Chump.
Like those US voters, you knew what you'd get, you were warned, you were told, and you ignored all of that and did it anyway for whatever chickenshit reasons you may have had at the time.
Fuck. Right. Off. Shove your "guilt/regret/whatever" straight up your collective ass.
Fucking tired of Dems "saying the right things" and saying it too late when they can't undo what they did and are simply attempting to rehabilitate their reputation. You have no reputation to rehabilitate, you ultimate performative cowards.
🤦♀️ 🤡 🫏 🖕 💩
Your regret
you knew
you were warned
you were told
you ignored
Shove your “guilt/regret/whatever”
You have no reputation
you ultimate performative cowards
Do you think you're writing to them directly? Brah…we have news for you.
As a minority party with essentially no control of anything your only job is to make the majority's job as hard as possible and they couldn't even do that!
Don't worry, as soon as Trump crosses Schumer's red line of disregarding the supreme court the Democrats will spring into action!
.... They'll spring into action any day now
....... Any day now
Democrats: 🦗🦗🦗
What do you mean? Theyre acting right now to address the wild chaos of the Trump admin and calling their stock brokers as we speak
They'll spring into action by waving a finger at him and going tsk tsk
Hey, easy now. The Supreme Court already said there’s no need for that
It'd be sooo mean. I'd better resign. It'd show them how I'm angy at them.
We ALL told you not to vote for her you spineless loser.
It's simple - no Democrat should cast a single yes vote for ANY MAGA legislation, ever.
Why do we keep electing sellout Democrats who won’t even do their jobs? We haven’t even had a real primary in 17 years.
I'll bite. Because on the whole they vote our positions more than the red team would. Are they a good fit for my politics? Nope, but they're usually the least bad option in the general.
That said we need to primary these fucks every time.
We have a similar problem in Canada. A lot of us wanted to vote NDP but felt we had to vote liberal to avoid the risk of vote splitting leading to a conservative win. This problem could be avoided with ranked choice voting like they have in Australia, which our last prime minister promised to give us but he gave up on it.
To your latter point- if people show up to vote at all they don't usually show up to primaries.
Wish in one hand, shit in the other. See which fills up first. People aren't voting every single election and just hoping someone great shows up. Well newsflash- you gotta show up first.
To your latter point- if people show up to vote at all they don't usually show up to primaries.
And this is the problem right here. You should be voting at least once a year and paying fucking attention to who the candidates are and their platform
You guys didn’t even get a primary last election lol they just picked Harris for you.
The goal of primary is to grow the progressive wing as much as possible and eventually split to just being progressive. Even if we don't get to that point we are a real threat to spoil, so we would get taken more seriously.
Bit late at this point tho. Now we have a bigger and more complicated fight without clear goals and leadership. Which is needed to follow up protests.

I hope they all get primary’d.
Primary voters are still dumb as fuck and just go with the incumbent most of the time. This country sucks because voters suck.

THEY NEVER SHOULD HAVE VOTED TO CONFIRM HER IN THE FIRST PLACE. OUR OWN PARTY IS FULL OF DUMBASSES.

Everybody that has voted while Trump is president should be voted out. If they voted for any approval or confirmation, fuckin voted out.
They sold out our nation.

If they weren't capable of seeing this coming, then they should not be in a position to make these decisions.
What the fuck did these useless cunts think would happen?
They thought since they do performative bullshit, politics is performative bullshit, so anyone they confirm into office also does only performative bullshit.
They passed the buck and hoped some other guardrail would do their job for them

Primary the lot of them.
Americans, pay attention. Both parties are selling you out. This is evidence. Republicans, their approach, while brutal, is refreshingly honest.
Democrats merely pretend they care about you. They don't. They, like the Republicans, only wish to continue playing the game at your expense. If they actually cared about you, Rove v. Wade would have been enshrined as a Constitutional right ages ago, rather than used as a political football.
Time to create REAL alternatives for yourselves.
If they actually cared about you, Rove v. Wade would have been enshrined as a Constitutional right ages ago
Yeah, because Congress can just crank Constitutional amendments out effortlessly, no problem, right?
Primary them by all means but not supporting an alternative against the current gov is supporting the fascist status quo.
Need to support AOC and Bernie to overall that party while the stupid FPTP system exists.

Why did these idiots vote for her?
Because the Dems are still capitalists, owned by big business donors
Don't ever think that they give a fuck about the people
Like RFK Jr no Democrat should have found her qualified from the outset. I’m glad that Kaine is very disappointed with her though. Maybe he’ll self soothe with some finger wagging.

I swear, this country has one party of ‘no regerts’ and one party of ‘in hindsight it was the wrong choice.’ Really great that you see the mistake, but you keep making it.
