@MrWorkrate I'll never not be BLOWN AWAY by the decision to bring TDA into this team. They worked SO HARD not only in the early years to break the stereotype of the south and southern sports fans, but more recently to be one of the most likeable teams in the league and now... Poof.
@owillis Frankly, this is how we ended up at "Defund the Police." Democrats had years to come up with a message about the government sponsored terrorism against their own voters and the best they could do was "We obviously have nothing but the utmost respect for our men and women in unif
@skibee So, if you know beforehand how it's going to turn out, why on earth would you make any concessions regarding scope, length, witnesses, etc? You're not going to get any extra votes... so why do it?
@attilatheblond @markmarstaller @BradMossEsq@KagroX "The Senate was always going to acquit him" is a reason to make impeachment MORE robust, not less. We had the entire nation's attention and then signaled to them it wasn't as important as Chris Coons catching his flight. That's an abdication. That's lack of accountability.
@blm1906 @BradMossEsq@KagroX "There's really nothing Democrats can do about anything, and people who expect more of them are the problem" is quite a hill to fucking die on.
@blm1906 @BradMossEsq@KagroX Did I IMAGINE that they reduced the scale of impeachment? Did I fucking DREAM that Chris Coons straight-up told impeachment managers not to call witnessed because Democrats wanted to go home for Valentine's Day? Did they not explicitly ask for our vote based on accountability?
@markmarstaller @attilatheblond@BradMossEsq@KagroX "We wouldn't have won, so we shouldn't have bothered fighting for the right thing" is really motivational.
@blm1906 @BradMossEsq@KagroX You look around and see victory, but I'M the problem?
Good luck with your way of thinking. It's really working fucking awesome.
@BradMossEsq@KagroX The investigation into Trump's behavior following the election should have been indefatigable. There was no upside to making any concessions, and it's WAY too late for any meaningful repercussions.
@BradMossEsq@KagroX I'm going to say this again... Democrats deciding to keep impeachment narrow, short, and less important than Valentine's Day was one of the most egregious and damaging abdications of responsibility I can imagine.
