          Predicated on the unknowable notion of whether they wanted to or not.

          You take them at their word that they wanted to pass stuff. I don’t. Your unfounded belief that politicians are telling the truth isn’t a fact, and I’ve never claimed that my speculation is.

            They literally tried and voted on them, but were prevented by Sinema and Manchin Educate Yourself and stop basing your views on how you feel. Done with this conversation.

              knowing that sinema and manchin didn’t support it, can we be sure they even wanted to accomplish it, or just that they wanted to appear to want to accomplish it?

                Yes, I’m extremely critical of the Democratic party for not being far enough to the left, but the stuff they wanted to pass that the 2 Senators blocked were no way to the left of other Legislation they have passed in the past, you are making multiple leaps in logic that make you look the fool. There are multiple other things to be critical of the Democrats for, being blue balled by these 2 Senators isn’t one of them.

                  i don’t believe democrats actually want to fix anything ever. if they did, they couldn’t hold it over our head that they WOULD fix it if we vote for them next time.

                    I’ll agree that they dont want to change the status quo, but they don’t actively want to make it worse, and that is unfortunately enough to gain my vote in the current political climate. Any incremental improvement they accomplish is better than what the Republicans would do if they had control, what is your solution?
