You're right when your definition of "better" is a month where you only have to choose between a roof over your head and food instead of a roof over your head, medicine, and food.
What a disgusting response to the current state of the country and our decades long decline into serfdom.
And your recommended alternative to voting for Democrats is...?
Wow how quickly you dropped the argument about things being "better." How about you stop carrying water for people who aren't serving our best interests and stop acting like politics is a team sport for starters? You can't even handle legitimate criticism of the party without getting upset because it doesn't "sound right."
I dropped the argument about better because you don't care that it's better. You made that very clear.
It is better. Better than it would have been. Better than other countries did.
The Democrats are absolute shit. But they're still better than the other absolute shit. And in America you only get those two options.
So I'll say again. If your plan isn't to hold your nose and vote for the better of two shits, what is your plan?
What did you steal this quote from a Trump speech? How interesting that I'm hearing more and more Trump rhetoric from Democrats as of late. It's also interesting that you can't even point to any actual examples.
Funny that if things are so much better now, why are you getting so defensive over someone criticizing some politician that doesn't even know you exist? It sounds more like you're desperate to bury any criticism of your team and their terrible, ineffective policies.
