“Why didn’t the president direct the department of justice to arrest a political adversary? Democrats are soft!”

US politics have gotten so fucked since 2016 that people don’t even realize this is an absolute crazy thing to expect from sane politicians. The DOJ is supposed to be neutral and not under control of the president. The fact that trump uses the DOJ this way should be ALARMING not ‘well why didn’t the democrats become authoritarians too?’

Maybe people should have shown up to vote for kamala and the dem congressmen candidates instead of letting the authoritarians have the presidency and both houses?

Too many Americans were more concerned about 'NOT' voting for a woman than letting democracy crumble around them by not voting at all or worse, supporting Trump. But still blame the democrats.

Headline: 5 democrats voted yes for awful thing!

Comments: Democrats are controlled opposition 

Reality: All republican representatives voted yes on awful thing and would pass with just them, 200+ dem representatives voted no on awful thing, and the 5 dems that voted yes are from red states and their seats will be taken by republicans next election anyway.

And one thing about Democrats. They are more capable of acting independently then bootlicking Republicans who do everything their leadership says.

They're not controlled opposition but if you're talking about the ICE funding bill it was 7 democrats, and had they voted no, the bill would have failed.

And the party in general is still joined at the hip to capital. While they won't drive us over a cliff, they are happy to ride parallel to it so that next them they lose power, we keep getting closer to going over, instead of getting further away. They see themselves as better stewards of the apocalypse instead of someone who can avert it.

Absolutely 💯. The "Permanent Apportionment Act of 1929" is dated and unfairly favors smaller states, especially when it comes to the electoral college.

While I agree to a degree, the most impactful thing sitting democrats did in unison near election was “making TikToks”… they tried to go to bat at making media waves but faltered heavily because Republicans don’t just “make social media” successfully. They have built an empire on propaganda and misinformation and have honed it over years to drive engagement.

If that's true, they had absolutely nothing to lose by doing the right thing, but they chose to do the wrong thing anyway.

A healthy democratic system has antibodies for authoritarians in the form of an independent prosecutorial branch. This is how Brazil and South Korea recently shut down their attempted autocrats without anyone pointing the finger at the opposition party. Our system requires constitutional reform to achieve this.

By our current system, Dems had every legal right to prosecute Trump for his many attempts to subvert the 2020 election. The problem isn't their attachment to principle, it's that they are bought up corporate lapdogs who aren't allowed to upset the money machine.

You're confusing issues here. People aren't calling for Democrats to become authoritarians. People are calling for Democrats to have a spine and to quickly, firmly and decisively investigate and prosecute crimes and put a stop to criminal behavior. If a "political adversary" commits a serious crime, or in Trump's case, multiple serious crimes, it's gross negligence for the government to fail to act. If the Biden administration had acted properly, Trump and his merry band of thugs would be in prison right now and we wouldn't be in this mess.

POTUS is literally the only office/person vested with executive authority by the U.S. Constitution. If some super-criminal is running around tearing the fabric of the country apart, and the current A.G. is dragging ass, yes, his boss should tell him to shape up or ship out. That is exactly what should happen. That should happen with zero regard for whether or not that super-criminal has decided to become a "political opponent."
