Because we definitely dont.

I think his behavior immature and impotent.

If Trump says something stupid, then let him hang himself. Or get on social media or the news to explain why what he said was stupid.

Behaving like an angry donkey does not impress me. Standing up to Trump doesnt mean that you have to behave like a toddler mixed with a barnyard animal, interrupting people at high volume. This isnt the Jerry Springer show

I want to know why Democrats feel the need to do the Republicans' job by attacking him, instead of keeping their opinions to themselves.

They're pretty good at keeping quiet, after all.

Trump isn't bad because of his uncouth mannerisms. He is bad because the things he does hurt people.

I just find it so interesting that it's such a faux-pas in American politics to make a clamor and whatnot in these sorts of addresses, yet if you look at a lot of other democracies in the world, there is SO MUCH arguing and fighting and PASSION in political rhetoric even in the House of Commons or the Senate or whatever.

British politics is all about this.

That's because there is a culture of, and a role for, opposition in many Parliamentary democracies.

It's literally the job of the non-governing parties to oppose the government and hold it to account. Rather than work out how you can get along and respect the office.

The 10 Democrats who voted with Republicans to censure Green were: Ami Bera of California, Ed Case of Hawaii, Jim Costa of California, Laura Gillen of New York, Jim Himes of Connecticut, Chrissy Houlahan of Pennsylvania, Marcy Kaptur of Ohio, Jared Moskowitz of Florida, Marie Gluesenkamp Perez of Washington and Tom Suozzi of New York.

I dont mind being one of 10 Democrats who said, no, theres a deeper principle at stake here, which is reverence for this institution, Himes said after the vote, adding that lawmakers need to act with the decorum and with the civility that says to the world that we are a serious country.


Tone deaf. Jesus Christ these people are absolute spineless fucks.

There's really no reason for any D to vote in favor of any GOP bill, because a GOP bill is guaranteed to be stupid, evil, or both.

That goes double for cases like this where only one side (i.e., Democrats) are held to standards, while Republicans always get a free pass for all their shit.

Do I think his protest was helpful in anyway? No, but that's because you can't protest fascism away. Do I think censuring him is a good move? No, because you can't appease fascism away.

What can you do?

Not having a majority is exactly why they shouldn't do this. They have literally nothing to lose and still can't show any fight.

I doubt I'd ever see something even a fraction of this critical from you about the fascist piece of trash who let verbal diarrhea explode from his mouth for two whole hours.

Letting Trump "hang himself" doesn't happen because the media plays defense for him, sanewashes him, and tries to cover up the dumbest and most insane shit he says. That's why people were so quick to forget even his most outrageous comments, like the one about immigrants eating dogs.

even with a dictatorship underway speed running us into a second great depression these cowards are more desperate to appease their wealthy donors than they are the people who are begging them to show a spine, show some resistance and they refuse to, Jeffries is being paid by Musk, Newsome is haing out with little face nazi kirk, Fetterman glazes a brutal genocider and Trump every chance he gets, meanwhile or Raskins, AOCs, Crocekets, Sanders and few others are actually trying to be the people's voice It's very noticeable how silent the clintons, bidens and obamas have been as well as well as obama destroying his legacy by hanging out with Trump and Biden welcoming that fucking traitor back to the white house

Either this is sarcasm, or one of the most insane things I've seen on this board in recent times.

They don't have to censure one of their own for something like this, for calling Trump out and saying he has no mandate for Medicaid cuts.
