I’d like to think if we could build good things once, we can do it again, maybe even better this time around… but the hard truth is, I’m not likely to see the results of that labor in my lifetime.
It’s still worth fighting for.

In my list of right-wing fools not understanding that work doesn’t happen unless someone does it, I should probably have added centrist Democrats not realizing democratic safeguards do nothing if they aren’t applied.

You are so much kinder than I am. Guess where I prefer that he rams it.

As a compromise it could be rammed all the way through.

I’m thinking the Archer approach is not without value.

Unless you’re the very first one there, I’d be careful what you might be stepping on. Or at least wear galoshes.

I saw someone today saying that they truly believed the damage wouldn’t be fixed in their lifetime, and I was thinking that some of the damage can’t ever be fixed - for that reason. The stuff that can be fixed, I don’t expect it to be fixed in my lifetime, though. It’s generational damage. Even if he does nothing for the rest of his term and courts reverse all his executive orders (and all of that’s not going to happen), so much permanent damage will have already been done. I’m just hoping that things can be built back better for future generations, but it’s going to take a long time. It’s so much easier to break things than to fix them.

It’s like they took a look at the absolute worst phone menus available and said “no, we can do it worse”.

Might be something to do even if you are not technically Catholic.
