So, Im not supposed to be critical of Democrats here.
So, what do I say?
All Democratic senators voted for Marco Rubio as Secretary of State . A man who endured endless abuse and mockery at the hands of MAGA and at one time criticized the Felon:
Speaking to CNN's Jake Tapper in March 2016, Rubio warned: "For years to come, there are many people on the right, in the media and voters at large, that are going to be having to explain and justify how they fell into this trap of supporting Donald Trump."
In a 2016 clip, Rubio called Trump a "con artist," telling the crowd, "He runs on this idea that he is fighting for the little guy. But he has spent his entire career, sticking it to the little guy...If you all have friends who are thinking about voting for Donald Trump, friends do not let friends vote for con artists."
So, yeah. We the people are on our own. There is ZERO fight in them, who shall remain nameless
Dont expect the party of Kennedy to stand up for anything.
Theyre all Profiles

(5,402 posts)If Rubio lasts a year, Ill be surprised. I give him 6 months before Prez Elon runs him off.

(19,614 posts)and yet, there was not a single one of Biden's nominees that got a unanimous vote.
Because Republicans don't do that.
And even Gabbard and Heseth will get Dem votes, though if it is unanimous on either of them, well, there is something seriously wrong.
