Compare these approaches politically: TRUMP: puts his name on $1200 checks sent directly to most taxpayers CONGRESS: Gives $350 billion to banks and sends itself home. The money runs out almost immediately

Really, do you have to be a tool for the “Democrats are always bad and useless” motif? *especially* in contexts where there is little agency? It’s not like the Democrats didn’t come up with a better bailout plan.

How much more agency do you need than controlling a house of Congress? The point of winning power is to wield it to benefit people. That didn't happen here, and it deserves calling out

almost like just electing democrats for the sake of electing democrats isn’t enough. almost like if u elect someone with a D by their name and they don’t materially improve your conditions u at best cause voter apathy and at worst cause them to gamble with right wing populism

It’s been ages but my memory is that republicans pushed them to the brink, and as markets fell apart and people languished in anxiety the democrats held strong and got a lot of bad shit removed.
