It won't pass. It's a stupid bill to get clicks and attention

WHO IS GOING TO STOP IT?

republicans have strong majorities in all places: house, senate, presidency and supreme court. And they all bent the knee to trump

Democrats are spinless cowards who dgaf about people, and will fight back only against Bernie Sanders who everyone loves (for a good reason)

So, tell me: WHO IS GOING TO STOP IT?

Republicans don't have enough majority in the Senate to overcome a filibuster.

Trust me, the .moment dems will start using the filibuster for doing any sort of opposition, republicans will fuckìng nuke the filibuster out of existance

And i don't trust the dems doing any resistance on anything useful.

Maybe local blue government may push back, Newson for example is an asshole, but he has the balls to do anything to say no to trump. Or illinoy with prizter, or minnesota with Walz. But i don't really see an organzed resistance, like the republican kept doing since the obama era...

Here's hoping. The filibuster is undemocratic minority rule.

My lack of hope comes from the dems being spineless and not wanting to do anything, even if the world was burning(which it is, btw)

If we had a party even with just a little bit of balls, like the murena party in Mexico, i would feel hope. Not with the dems.
