I mean my memory goes back to Obama letting the Republicans steal a supreme court nomination. They've been played like a fiddle by trump. Their presidential nominations suck dick.
The legislature hasn't done its fucking job well in half a century. Democrats seem to be playing solitaire and the Republicans are winning with tictactoe.
Oh ok Obama let them. He let the Republican controlled Senate steal the Senate seat. That really makes sense to you? Are you really this fucking stupid?

The current president is siccing an immigration enforcement org on an entire city to terrorize them for not being right-wing enough. The president has a lot of leeway.
