Remember how when they have the opportunity to pass laws that support the working class, reverse the laws passed by facists or throw a tantrum throwing pedo traitor in jail for the good of the entire world they don’t because it’s against some ancient Sumatran precedent and they don’t want neo Nazis to consider them impolite….so even if they do get in they’re not going to reverse any of this or hold anyone accountable. They are going to magically have a few democrats vote against anything that would be considered progress and their new normal will be substantially farther right. Anyone progressive will have their wings clipped immediately.
