      I don’t blame him for making the joke at orangeboi’s expense that evidently formed the kernel of spite and rage that made him decide to go for it.

      I DO blame him for not taking the threat he posed seriously. Especially considering this is the standard dynamic between our two parties - one follows the rules and conventions and etiquette and expected decorum and wrings their hands about not being able to do something… and the other one doesn’t fucking care and just does it anyways.

      So: yes.

        Democrats have made it clear they don’t even have room for democratic socialists which is fair enough, they’re liberals.

        They just don’t get to also whine and bitch about solidarity when socialists criticize them for the laziness and crimes.
