    Trump is governing by executive order. Hence the Democrats have to proactively pass laws to stop Trump. It is not a bill Democrats can filibuster in the Senate.

    Whereas Democrats actually try to pass bills, as the system is supposed to work. And when Biden or Obama did try to use executive orders, they were often blocked by SCOTUS. Because US voters allowed Republican Presidents to stack the courts with partisans.

    Also, generally Democrats are trying to build stuff. Whereas Republicans are trying to block or destroy stuff. destroying stuff is inherently easier.

      Don’t care. The system is fucked and they need to act accordingly. They are the opposition they need to figure something out, legal or not. Letting shit play out until midterms will fuck all of us. The Republicans stopped caring about legality years ago.

        Really telling that you want them to do more and Blue MAGA gets angry at people wanting the Democrats to do anything meaningful.

        Controlled opposition and it’s brainwashed sycophants.
