I feel like ultimately this has comed down to People Taking This Seriously vs. Everyone Else.

My 18 year old cousin uses her mom’s credit card (that her mom gave her) to take Ubers and pay for lunch or brunch with her friends at restaurants so they can practice for their post-college future in the city using their parent’s credit cards for brunch

Sure it is. But if you think the Democrats are in any position to strengthen it, you’re delusional. What they’re doing is attempting to save it, period.

She made a deal with the president (yes he IS the president and wields a lot of fucking power whether we like it or not) to protect DACA. She’s doing her fucking job. I don’t even like Pelosi but people are being fucking irrational.

“You made a deal to protect DACA! Why aren’t you doing anything to protect DACA??”

I hope the letter was sent via a small, scrappy kid on bike.

Thing is, the Dems are a politically diverse coalition. I get being suspicious, and I get the desire to never rest in pursuit of your goals. Its just bad strategy to attack them where they’re actually doing the thing you broadly want them to do.

I legit don’t understand how you want a legislative fix for DACA that doesn’t involve Trump.

Good to see the DACA people have embraced the most American thing of their cohort- outlandish millennial expectations with no basis in reality.

What do you think she is doing? She and Schumer got President Tangerine to move from “deport them all” to actually trying to do something humane for the DACA children and young adults. You do realize that not only do the Dems not have a majority, they also don’t the super majority needed to overturn a presidential…

I wonder who talked this group into doing this. Seeing more and more of that Dem and Rep are equally evil false equivalency crap, and you have to take a second and wonder just who is pushing that narrative. It worked pretty well in ‘16, and looks to be a still potent weapon.

You guys, we are so fucked in 2018 and 2020.

It has to be the Dems. I don’t think they’ll find many friends on the (R) side of the road. It’s going to be an uphill battle all the way for this legislation Pelosi wants. Dear lord why make it any harder?

I would never think that all Dems whole hardheartedly support anything. But the party as a whole is allied with the Latino community. They might not be perfect allies, but they generally try. Meanwhile the other side might as well be setting up concentration camps.

There’s making your voice heard by continuing to apply pressure to your reps whenever possible (good!) and there’s shooting yourself in the proverbial dick because you’re upset the house minority leader didn’t...singlehandedly pass a bill that was exactly what you wanted...during a recess (bad!)? What exactly are they…

And how exactly should the minority party go about doing this?

Way to punch your own side in the face. Great job guys.

Well of course she’s not worried, she has all that diamond mine profit to fall back on.

As interpreted by Red Pandas: “AND THEN IT JUST APPEARED!”

This girl is still a thing?
