    I wish the factions could sit down together and figure this shit out, because the one thing we all have in common is that none of us are happy with the way things are.

      Problem is, we are unhappy about different parts of the way things are, and even worse, the same parts in opposite directions.

        The actual problem is the right wing’s inability to compromise because of the religious core of the GOP. This is why Republicans block anything from getting through Congress and waste time doing shit like slow walking the Hunter Biden case because they can’t get anything on the actual POTUS.

          Agreed. I was just pointing out that even giving them the benefit of the doubt (which you are right, we shouldn’t) it is Still not as simple as just finding commonalities - many things we think are good they directly consider bad and vice versa.
