(12,463 posts)Explain to the public why before the votes Dems wont vote for shitty republican legislation we'd be ok defying them.
Cause they hide poison pills,they twist laws and let evil people do evil things . Republicans hate democracy and pulled a coup,authoritarian rule is not democratic,etc.
Just be very aggressive expose thier shit everywhere and be repetitive in explaining and outing thier dirty manipulations.
Dont hide the crap republicans do and dont coddle those fuckers egos.
Tear them and thier legislation apart all over the airwaves before the vote.
Then people would get it maybe . Be outraged and let that frustration become inspiration. Stop being cordial to authoritarians.

Biden would have to sign them, and there's no way in Hell that will happen. They'll never get veto-proof margins for any of it, either.

(6,011 posts)dumb like a fox, bur he also knows that push is going to come to shove. It has to,
for anything to move; even GOP bills.
The GOP is absolutely desperate, hence the voter suppression attempts, etc.
They already sucked as a party. First came the teabaggers stinking the joint up. Then came trump, and the Q-Balls. Then came the degenerate armed militants. That's a lot of damage for a party to sustain.
The Dems need to crazy glue all that is trump to the GOP now, and during the midterms.
