(6,974 posts)What worries me is that you have this drip, drip, drip, in the 'so called' liberal media saying that Joe has to reach out to THEM, to thuglicans like moscowmitch who stopped the stimulus package because he wanted to put his evil handmaiden onto the supreme court. He doesn't give one fuck about people suffering, with 238K DEAD from Carona-19. After all these years it's FACT that you can't work with moscowmitch whose craven, racist, treasonous, greedy and worse. You just can't. Neither can you work with Collins, Rant paul, Gym Jordan, tom Cotton, and you know the rest of their bunch. I keep hearing "Joe is a nice guy and can work with them--give a little, get a little." News to the liberal media, we don't have fucking much to give--we're bankrupted up to the eyeballs in the trillions because of the GOP/tRump and their tax cuts. We have no infrastructure, covid-19 is eating our lunch (238K DEAD and continuing), the economy is a shit sandwich. Yet, some the media are going soft on this son of a bit, saying give him time and space.
Joe can remain nice and kind and there's nothing wrong with that. He has heart, cares for others and has the deepest of empathy's ever. He's gone through a lot in life, and knows the feeling and shares his soul with others. But I'm praying he stays strong and tough against these jackals and doesn't make too many of those deals and remembers to check thuglicans in public when they fuck up. These thugilicans are not like those old ones from even 15 years ago. Dems MUST have consistent messaging and keep reminding the people that were in this spot because of those assholes, and that we have a mandate to do what we have to because we have deficits up to our eyeballs, no infrastructure and people are dying from Covid-19, jobless, and now homeless and suffering. Also, the ACA has to be kept with pre-existing and expanded on. These thuglicans are nasty, evil and will LIE and say Dems are big-spending and it's their fault. Dems somehow and let fatso get away with murder (Covid-19) literally. I'm for reaching out to them in public so EVERYONE can see that I tried, but they weren't having it. But, if Dems get the Senate seats they need to have an advantage over those thuglicans use it, tell the people why you had to go the way you did ... NONE of the thuglicans save Jeb Bush & Romney, even reached out to Joe congratulated Joe on his presidential win today. Hopefully he remembers to be TOUGH as nails, and doesn't buddy around with them. We're in trouble. Deep trouble and Biden/Kamala have a lot to try to clean up. Unfortunately, the corporate media will stay on him/Kamala if it takes too long, and that's another thing, Joe has to let the American people know that all he intends to try to do is going to take a WHILE, and if he has to, pivot to thuglicans if he doesn't get the Senate and tell the American people that Mitch et al aren't cooperating.
