    If you are going to sit there and pretend that dems do damage to our country like republicans do, go sit at the kids’ table. Voting is for grown-ups.

      Yes, while we are all preoccupied with “us vs them” they can do what they want. It’s been pretty even throughout the past decades of congress & president, but here we are blaming each other laying cover for them to work together and pass legislation for the highest bidder without any “news coverage” at all.

        Decades ago we didn’t have a president with a cult following, who would not say nazis and white supremacists are bad because that’s so much of his fanbase.

        This both sides shit sounds so stupid in the current political landscape that it is baffling people saying it seem to think they are above it or enlightened more than the people who picked a side. Politicians are corrupt what a fucking novel idea. Don’t forget to study for your algebra test next week.

        Or let me put it this way. If you live a life where you did not feel impacted in any way or witness others be impacted by trump and the social shift in your communities then that is just you being lucky. That does not mean both sides are the same. Look how different the Supreme Court has been since trump got to pack it with a rapist and someone not even qualified.

        Pick a lane, cuz we are all assuming you’re cool with nazis, racists, homophobics, anti-trans, women haters if you say “both sides are the same” it isn’t fooling anyone.
