everybody needs to gird their loins for the time when the Democrats are running again. They will claim this as their victory. They will pretend it just took two years of hard nosed negotiating with Israel to make this thing happen despite it literally just taking an incoming administration telling Israel to wrap this shit sandwich up before the 20th.
They already are https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/statements-releases/2025/01/15/statement-from-president-joe-biden-14/
FUCK
edit: I have to be honest I told everybody to gird their loins but I did not gird my own loins and that's on me
You nailed it and the worst part is that this fits their meta narrative perfectly so they get to keep acting like smug elitist assholes looking down their noses at all of us for "not understanding how much time and hard work it takes to govern" or whatever parliamentarian bullshit they're on this week
Had some lib boomer clown like this a few months ago IRL ask me incredulously if I know how a law is made, I honestly wanted to punch him and if I hear any shit like this I may not be able to control myself
When the entirety of your political education is one schoolhouse rock song.
In my high school government class our learning about the lawmaking process I think was just that song and then a dead simple quiz on it. But now that I think about it, I did have mono at the time, so I missed a lot of classes. But no, our education in politics was very underwhelming. And just pretend Marx and friends didn't exist because we sure didn't learn about them despite the strong opinions we had about their theories.
Oh you have no fucking idea how dead accurate what you just said was
He was literally organizing an extremely cringe lib sing along to campaign for Holocaust Harris that he called "Doing the Harris Waltz" and there's a small part of me that wishes I had been nice to him for a minute just to get a copy of the sheet notes with lyrics he handed out to his small group (the boomer libs were less than half of the size of our local weekly protest against the genocide) to post here for everyone to point and laugh at
it might be fun to ask him for a copy now
The shot heard around the world? That one about Luigi?
Setting the ceasefire on the 19th has to be trump's circus doing their best to make sure it's plain that Biden's own team of clowns weren't the ones to do the thing
