Yeah, not sure what “liberals”, hell anyone on the left, would’ve been able to do to stop this fascism, besides voting, which posts like this seem hell bent on getting us to disagree with each other about.
They could have EASILY put Trump in prison. There are SO MANY documented crimes he has committed. They actively chose not to because they are controlled opposition owned by the rich.
Let’s just pretend Biden didn’t have 2 years of near congressional control to prevent the fascist takeover I guess. Or at the very least impede its effect. Never forget Biden never shut down the whole kids in cages shit, or ended the border wall construction outright.
That’s not an answer to my question, but in any case you do still need a trial and conviction. Did you forget about the multiple trials he was facing that were only dropped because he was inaugurated?
They didn’t even start the process until two years in to the Biden administration. Biden sent the nation to Hell through the oldest liberal failing - seeking to compromise with Republicans. He appointed a Republican as his attorney general. Did you forget that? And then Garland proceeded to slow-walk the Trump prosecution. They only moved forward at all after the House investigatory committees forced their hand.
DNC haven’t had more than 50 senators in over a decade but he still managed to pass lots of good shit like the IRA and some protections for gay marriage.
Incorrect, the last 7 congresses had the following party divisions:
113th 2013-2015 : 53 D - 45 R - 2 I
114th 2015-2017 : 44 D - 54 R - 2 I
115th 2017-2019 : 46/47 D - 50/52 R - 2 I
116th 2019-2021 : 45/46 D - 53/52 R - 2 I
117th 2021-2023 : 46/48 D - 51/50 R - 2/3 I
118th 2023-2025 : 47/48 D - 49 R - 3/4 I
119th 2025-2027 : 45 D - 53/52 R - 2 I - 1 Vacancy
We literally have not had more than 48 D since 2015. The most independents we’ve ever had since the 1940s was also coincidentally in just before Republicans swept the 2024 election. Every DNC “majority” we’ve had in the last decade was only with caucusing independents and also VP tiebreaker.
We ALSO never had a DNC supermajority, which is why we had to water down the Public Option healthcare in 2011-2012 due to Independent Joe Lieberman holding out and Republican filibuster, the most we’ve had since 1979 was only 58.

Not funded ICE, at all.

What is “near congressional control”? That just sounds like a disingenuous way to say “didn’t have congressional control”.
You don’t need congress to send felons to prison.
That’s not an answer to my question, but in any case you do still need a trial and conviction. Did you forget about the multiple trials he was facing that were only dropped because he was inaugurated?
Why were all those trials slow-walked?
Were they? It seemed to me more like Trump doing the one thing he’s actually good at: dragging out trials.

Are you familiar with the typical timeframes involved in high profile federal cases? Going fast is how you get cases thrown out for minor oversights.

They had 51 for 4 years before this current congress. So I’m not really sure you’re right.

What I’m getting out of this is that Americans haven’t been craving the D in 10 years.
And yet despite everything continuously getting worse they can’t figure out what to do differently.
I guess that’s fair. Even though the 2 independents caucus with the Dems.
Baseless claims don’t fly far with an audience that reads like it’s second nature. 🤷🏼♂️
Biden was in the Senate for 50 years. he layed the groundwork for Trump.
lol the twisted logic
it’s pretty straightforward logic
