You said #BOTHSIDES has some merit: It does not.

You said Democrats need to draw a "clear contrast" to when it comes to certain topics, like the party itself even at it's worse is easy to contrast against Republican policy.

You reference how some Democrats are responding to Mamdani, how Trump is responding to him and trying to lump them together.

All you said was bothsides babble, even if you do not realize it. We knew what we were in for with either party and the country elected actual comic book supervillains, you can not lump Democrats in with that.

Look, try to wrap your pea sized red team/blue team brain around the following.

Democrats could draw a much stronger contrast — not just by opposing Republicans, but by clearly fighting for working and middle-class Americans. That means:
  • Guaranteeing universal healthcare so no one’s livelihood depends on employer insurance
  • Taxing the rich and corporations
  • Raising the federal minimum wage to a true living wage — $15–$20 and indexed to inflation
  • Erasing student debt and making public college tuition-free or debt-free
  • Ensuring paid family and medical leave for every worker
  • Investing in communities, not weapons — trimming bloated defense budgets to fund schools and housing
  • Conditioning foreign aid — including to Israel — on human-rights compliance and diplomacy
  • Holding Wall Street and Big Tech accountable through fair taxes and antitrust enforcement

The frustrating part is that whenever progressives push these policies, party leadership often aligns with Republicans to block them — protecting corporate donors instead of voters.

Both Sides is a legitimate issue with the political system if you take off your blue blinders

Trump is cartoon level villainous.

If he was in the Legion of Doom all of the other villains would be like "Yo, Donny I know we are all about doing evil shyt here but starving people is a really bad look. Believe it or not it actually helps to have some of the civilians on our side. This right here is gonna fukk everybody up."

Trump: Shut the fukk up.

I don't think you can go on there and snatch the money back once it dispersed. They might send them a letter later but there is no overdraft on EBT. I think lol
You can't, this is him trying to put fear into the States that are contemplating sending benefits, which is why since receiving the federal dollars, many red states haven't sent anything, be it partial or full benefits to their recipients.

There are states that, after receiving federal funds, were going to start processing payments as early as the middle of this week; now, he's telling them to halt the process. He can't do anything to states using their own state funds nor can he order States to remove balances from recipients who've already received theirs or have a pending date set.

However, states that have funded SNAP on their own won't be reimbursed whenever the shutdown ends.

The worse Democrat is infinitely better than the best Republican and any equating or passing blame to Democrats in the face of the brutality of the Republicans (which they promised) is retarded. Cry about different factions within one party while the other one is united in shytting on everyone not white or rich brehs.

I figured as much. Only the IRS can legally snatch money from folks. It's always smoke and mirrors with this admin. It's unfortunate for the Red state voters who didn't vote for this. But at this point his constituents have to feel the pain to learn their lesson. But they're also a death cult who was injected bleach into themselves because he told them too :francis:

Try to free your mind of the red and blue matrix and think of the big picture.

1. Ask yourself, why are there so many working people on Snap in the first place? Could it be that they are paid slave wages which the Dem establishment is in agreement with the Republican Party?

2. Ask yourself, Why is the healthcare of 20 million people being threatened by Republican ghouls? It’s because ACA is a market based program that basically hands billions in tax payer money to the vampire Health insurance companies. Who add nothing to the process Medicare for all would not be prey to the whims of Republican ghouls. But the Dems refuse to work towards a Medicare for all because they are owned by the Healthcare insurance companies.

There are bad BothSides actors, but the idea itself has merit. Both sides are owned by special interests. AIPAC, Health Insurance, Oil, etc.

Well Chuck and Hakeem are about to cave on the shutdown essentially pricing out millions of people from Healthcare.

See what I’m saying? Yeh Dems are better, but when the rubber meets the road, are they really willing to fight for their constituents?
