    They’re doing everything they can: talking about it. We voted them into the minority, they have no ability to do anything.

        Lol wtf does some random article from 2019 have to do with today?

        “Right now, Democrats have no power to do anything but talk about the thing that happened this week, and they are talking”

        “Well SEVEN YEARS AGO they criticized the lady they’re talking about now!! On a topic that ha nothing to do with her immigration status, which is currently being discussed. EVIIIL”

        Genuine question, not trying to be insulting: are you stupid?

          I believe the point OP is trying to make is that they have no problem calling her out, but won’t come to her defense. Why? Because they actually answer to corporate interests, and what’s happening to her now doesn’t matter to those interests.

          If their corporate donors called them and expressed their concern, you better believe they would have a press conference and be all over the Sunday political bs shows talking about it.

            But…they are. There are many Democrats, including minority speaker, calling this political persecution. OP is conveniently ignoring that, because it doesn’t fit their narrative.
