Democratic Senators Need To Quit Verbal Hitting W/Glove. Use Verbal Baseball Bat.

Senator Kennedy would have never let such nonsense continue. He would have blown up the whole process at some point. Quit using verbal gloves. Use the verbal baseball bat. Just go after their jugular and throw collegiality out ht window. It is time to brawl with these goons.

Unless we start branding them and abusing them, we will lose. We have to fight and we have be as vicious and cunning as they are. It has nothing to do with going low. It has everything to do with defending the defenseless.

Piss Trump and GOP Senators out. Force them to lose it, get out of control and expose themselves for the evil shits they are. We are past mincing words.

Plus such a fight will energize our base. A lot of Dems have felt abandoned by mealy mouth responses.

He doesn't take shit and does what Democrats should be doing. Namely calling out the gop bullshit and exposing them for what they are.

I know several of them all across this country (Myself included), who've become Independents. We all vote Dem, but don't like the fact that Dems keep allowing themselves to get the Charlie Brown treatment from Lucy.



It's as if some Dems (Except Maxine, Ted, Swalwell, Mazie, Duckworth and a few other Dems) KNOW that they're fighting literally with a DEVIL in thuglicans who want to KNOWINGLY take away people's health care which could result in their DEATH, with NO replacement for health care in sight. That's akin to murdering someone. Pure and Simple. You KNOW that people will DIE if they don't have any health care if they're ill or could become ill, but you don't give a FUCK. Knowing that people who've been born with certain pre-existing conditions (Holes in their heart), or who could develop Cancer, will have lifetime caps on the coverage they'll receive. In other words, thuglicans playing judge and jury and GOD in determining the length in someone's LIFE, because their coverage in fighting said disease will be capped--stopped at a certain point. Hell, the person may or may not even GET any health care. They may end up with one of those tRump skinny care health insurance policies which = having NO health care since the policies are worthless.

They have republican blood churning in the waters, yet they are soft. Is there no difference too, or is that being held in reserve for the next time?
