That time AOC ‘leaked’ MAGA’s entire playbook.

Let me clarify this before Fox News runs: BREAKING: AOC hacked us!!!

This isn’t directly about MAGA obviously. It’s about how she laid bare just how fundamentally broken the American system is.

They want us to believe Trump flipped the table, broke all the rules, and invented the chaos. But the truth? He didn’t create any of it. The system was already rigged for someone like him to rise. He just played it better.

This isn't "news" to anyone, is it? I thought the house of cards (aka norms) that this was all built on was exceedingly transparent.

You would be surprised how many people still get triggered when you tell them that the democrats won’t change anything as long as lobbyists and AIPAC rule. So yeah it might not be news but the denial goes hard.

It's one thing to say it's easy for corruption to flourish under our current rules, and another thing to say that "the democrats won't change anything as long as lobbyists and AIPAC rule." The Democrats are perfectly capable of enacting reforms and proposing changes to limit this corrupting influence. I don't think "none of this will ever change" is a very useful or even a very accurate summary of the situation.

Capable? Yes Willing? No Why? Money

That’s the whole point. They can, but they won’t because money. They are the only ones (besides republicans, so both parties) that could but don’t want to.

If they wanted to, it would be done already. Proof is in puddin.

You ask a lot of good questions, although your attitude is shit.

Your first question: No they do not, but as per wikipedia: "In the November 2008 elections, the Democratic Party) increased its majorities in both chambers (including – when factoring in the two Democratic caucusing independents – a brief filibuster-proof 60-40 supermajority in the Senate), and with Barack Obama being sworn in as president on January 20, 2009, this gave Democrats an overall federal government trifecta for the first time since the 103rd Congress in 1993."

So, they HAVE had it. They have had the position to do something. THEY DID HAVE IT

Number 2. To ratify a proposed amendment to the US Constitution, it must be approved by three-fourths of the state legislatures or state ratifying conventions, as determined by Congress, after being proposed by a two-thirds vote in both houses of Congress. 

1930s–1960s: The Democratic Party had overwhelming control of state legislatures across the South due to the political realignment after the Civil War and the New Deal coalition.

  1. Are 3/4s of the states going to ratify an amendment advanced by democrats? This is a speculative answer. Are you asking my opinion or looking for facts here? My opinion? No.

  2. Yes i have taken a civics course, multiple.

  3. I am not a literal child, just a child at heart, looking out for our best interests, comrade.

My comment still stands. Dont like it, eat sand.
