Current Events > Jon Stewart Urges Dems to Fight Like Republicans and Exploit Loopholes .

(+) Yeah! (+)

He's clearly fed up with how passive and inept the democrats have been and he's right...the Democrats obsessing with norms that never get respected by the other side has made them look pathetic and they have to fight harder if they ever want this country to survive. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HNcmo-K5Xsg

He's right, but Dems are too spineless to stand against fascism.

or at least fight like

at all

Dems are just afraid of not receiving any more donor money so theyre just gonna deliver the country on a silver plate to Trump.

I've been voting as a dem for too long but I'm too left leaning for them. It is the only option I have and I wish they would move to the left but be radical about it just the same.

We need to hit low regardless of how the right will try and frame us for it. That's the issue. We try to play fairly and we get knocked down and they want to demonize us if we ever sink to their level. I wish there was more basic intelligence out there....

like seriously....people who don't just listen to you talk with common sense and then just go "Huh?"

Should've packed the courts immediately in 2020.

The issue is true reform would take a party that does not depend on the Donor money to not be controlled by them...the problem is...having any power to do anything without anyone rich backing you.

Manchin and Sinema were in the way not only them either

I mean what can they do?

they need to actually be the democrat party not less bad republican party stay on the left dont slide to less fascist republican side

The interview he had after this covers it more to. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XGdSSJ6uVHw

Highlights are that the Democrats lost the pack with workers once unions lost power...not fighting harder to back unions might have broken the bond with workers forever in the end after all the other times they did not do enough to help them.

And its clear that the Democrats have not have had much urgency with the issues like with how Harris was saying things were mostly fine with things when they were clearly not.

The GOP has done nothing but lie but as others said, at least they sold that they were listening...

And in the end all those workers are getting fucked by Trump and republicans they will bust the unions and kill osha

I want to live in a world where Democrats fight republicans the way they fight progressives.

Remember when Biden's response to the Supreme Court making the presidency a king-like position was "I dissent"? lmao. Perfectly sums up establishment democrats.

Democrats need to stop fighting 2024 Republicans like it's 1990.

money rules the world, not spines

Gotta stay on the high road, even if it leads to destruction.

It's a good thing Dems wouldn't face consequences if they fought like Reps.
