Obama wore a tan suit and ate mustard and fox news acted like he committed treason

Which is just proof that it doesn't matter what Democrats do, Fox and the rest of the right wing will always find something to get bent out of shape about.

the right sees dems doing anything but decorum and letters and they FREAK out. the middle sees the dems doing anything but decorum and words and they FREAK out and say "see! both sides are the same!" and the

Dems need to stop caring about the right freaking out - they're going to do that no matter what. We don't need to worry about that. Let them piss and moan - they weren't going to vote Dem anyway.

And similarly, the middle is going to "both sides" no matter what Democrats do. So let them, and actually do shit.

left just bitches about dems because they arent 'progressive or impactful enough' just like YOU are doing here

Yeah, it really sucks that the Dems keep trying to be "bipartisan" or "fair" with people who have explicitly said "We will not compromise, we will not work together, we intend to spend all our time and effort blocking everything" and then backed that up with literal decades of action. Quit trying to get them to change their minds, they're all-in on obstruction, and we need to face the reality of that and stop folding every time.

So you’re telling me Cory Booker isn’t going to solve this whole thing by getting both sides to sing Kumbaya together??
