“The shitshow that is supporting Israel during its accelerating genocide, I won’t defend all that much. But the overall attempt to paint him as the same as the average Democrat is dead wrong.”
Won’t defend it all that much? So there is a defence even though they admit it’s an active genocide. Amazing
I think ‘republican obstructionism’ has become a thought terminating cliche rather than an argument anyone really believes. It’s a universal excuse. Any policy failure could be said to have failed because of obstructionism, so it works for everything, and asks no explanation for why any given policy succeeded or failed. “Just be grateful that anything got done at all!”
Anyone blaming obstructionism is basically saying “all Democrat wins are legitimate and the result of their competence, and all of their failures are illegitimate the result of bad faith actors.” I don’t know how you could take someone seriously if they were that unwilling to be even mildly critical of their own party.
