    No, we don’t need compromise.

    No one wants compromise. No one wants the “one time mail-in rebate coupon” version of legislation.

    They want simple universal non-means tested policies that work everywhere else in the industrialized 1st world countries that cost billionaires real money that they can easily afford which then provides nearly every other American real tangible life-changing benefits.

    No one wants the compromised version of human rights. No one wants the compromised version of medical debt forgiveness. No one wants the compromised version of universal healthcare.

    DO NOT compromise AGAIN.

    If they wanna join that’s fine, but they come to over to OUR side.

    We don’t move to them.

    We don’t extend a hand. Biden and Obama did that with McConnell with olive branches like fucking Merrick Garland… and they still slapped the helping compromising hands away.

    Please don’t fall for the Lucy football shit yet again.

        feel free to tell me how you’ll get 67 votes without compromise for single payer healthcare

        Certainly.

        The same way LBJ got assholes blocking his legislative goals to move out of the way : http://www.americanyawp.com/text/wp-content/uploads/Lyndon_Johnson_and_Richard_Russell.jpg

        The same way FDR got the conservative leaning Supreme Court to stop blocking his agenda

        …And if that doesn’t work. I want some Machiavellian shit. I want Kamala to inform Joe Manchin that “it would be a shame if his daughter - who bought the rights to the Epipen were to have that shit investigated and nationalized under the Sherman Act since it is imperative to national security that emergency medical care be available at a reasonable price for all Americans who need it… that it would be a shame if the EPA came and investigated his yacht for potential violations…”

        I want every single thing investigated and paperwork dumped on these ACTUAL shitheads blocking the good things ALL Americans should be demanding… and I want Harris at the bully pulpit clearly blaming and POINTING right in the faces of those blocking it… directing Americans’ collective righteous fiery ire where it is completely deserved, until they are TERRIFIED to NOT support her objectively magnanimous policy efforts.

        Trump did evil versions of this every day in office - it’s how we ended up with Jan 6th idiots storming the Capitol. The good version is just basically telling the truth and not being afraid of the whiny ultra-rich donors and ghoul rat liar fake D politicians who aren’t loyal to her anyway.
