Biden Slams Trump's New Remarks on Post Office






So... what would Democrats 'bringing an AK47' to the fight actually mean specifically?

You continue to bash them as "weak" or "cowardly" or "do nothing" on thread after thread, yet won't say what you expect them to do that they are not.

That's not 'dissent,' just carping and sniping at Democrats and leadership, again and again and again. There are other places where Democrat bashing is welcomed, and you would be much happier there than on Democratic Underground.

You seem so familiar, though... even in the short time you've been on DU. You remind me of someone who hasn't posted here in a while.
