Republicans can’t be bothered to negotiate with Democrats to stop your insurance premiums from skyrocketing—but they have no problem with Trump bailing out Argentina with $20B of your money.
So much for America First!

Q: What is the benefit for the US in helping Argentina?
TRUMP: Just helping a great philosophy take over a great country ... we don't have to do it. It's not gonna make a big difference for our country.

If you're dreaming of comebacks via midterms and elections, you're kidding yourself.
It will take an uprising.

Among the material devastation to everyday people, Senate Dems have now blown a hole in their ability to work with the House.
We had an agreed upon plan, House took immense risk, then Senate turned around midway and destroyed it w/ a fear-based, inexplicable abdication.
They own what happens next.

19-20 months from now, Trump will have pushed the economy off a cliff and left the civil service a smouldering husk. If you're a Democratic elected and you think a government shutdown from a CR fight is gonna be the thing voters remember, you need your fucking head examined.

This is a team sport. Sometimes, everyone agrees on a strategy you have concerns about. I’ve voted with less than 10 people multiple times.
But let’s be clear — there’s nothing heroic or admirable about green-lighting a billionaire takeover of our country. In these moments, our unity is our power.
