    Republicans are playing by a very different set of rules. When Democrats are in office, they lie and say deficits and morality are their central priorities. When Republicans take control, they explode the deficits and abandon all morality & integrity.

        Both parties give it up for the right price. What makes the GOP worse is their insistence that they are some sort of moral authority.

        The way DC works: The GOP get to create all of the rules, and rule number one is that only Democrats have to obey the rules. This is consistent regardless of which party has a majority.

        This represents the end of a government for and by the people. ... Now, we can surely protest,but it's been proven that it falls on deaf @GOP ears. ... What to do, when your government is more concerned with the welfare of corporations and give lip service to citizens welfare?

        Or we could protest the way they do in all the other democratic countries- march during a weekday, strike. Permit marches on Saturday are completely irrelevant. Not buying anything for a day in the other hand, makes a difference.

        This.⬆️ Protest is easy to ignore, esp when just small numbers. Spontaneous protest in the millions would command more attention. Our real power lies in noncompliance. Shutting down commerce w/ strike&protest. Boycotting corp shopping @ xmas wld be more effective than protest.$

        Because the facts are that most of the 67M of which you speak did not and have not for decades. It is state and local elections that create the senate and House. Power is a pyramid. The presendent is a figurehead.

        I definitely did not! I moved from state to state and had no idea who the locals were and didn’t know I could just do a straight ticket. Then I left the country for years and came back and did straight tickets from 2010 on. So I’m guilty of negligence for sure.

        That, and also those of us who were Dems, went to College, got jobs in the cities, etc were most definitely guilty of forgetting about every one who didn’t do that. The Dems voted for all the right things but didn’t follow through. See Clinton years for ex.
