And, even better, Democrats know they'll get votes even though they've done nothing meaningful to stop it, so why would Trump ever stop?
nothing meaningful? pay closer attention
I suppose it is meaningful, in a way, that they've issued a bazillion court orders against him and he's ignored them all without any accountability.
They've made a monster.
Yeah, those Democrats really encourage ~~him~~Republicans to be the worse 🙄
They absolutely do by deciding not to hold him accountable.
Yeah they should have impeached him for at least a couple different things. And all the Democrats should have voted for it. Oh yeah they did.
WE should have elected more Democrats because all of their votes is not enough when all (or all but a few) Republicans vote to block it. Most things in Congress require more than a 1 vote majority to pass, and Republicans always line up to make sure that doesn't happen.
Democrats didn't decide not to hold him accountable. But that is exactly what the Republicans did.
They had the full authority of the Federal Government for two years.
And they let him walk on everything.
Electing Democrats doesn't accomplish anything. You just make more excuses like you're doing right now.
Who do you want us to vote for then?
fucking moron, no wonder you're a flash mob of one. Nobody else can take your fucking egotistical stupidity
Justice system is a separate entity
Don't pin Trump's behavior on us. That's his responsibility and his alone.
I'd put some of it on the Republicans who enabled him as well as the conservative news organizations and talk radio that have knowingly pumped out propaganda for decades. No Democrats though - which is what you were talking about.
Fair enough, agreed
so you actually just don't understand a goddamn thing then, cool.
