Useless. Time for the Social Democrats to form their own party.

    I think your fourth point is what frustrates me the most. This was a symbolic vote and they couldn’t even do that.

      And rightfully so. My question is - what did they get for it? Did the DNC ask for it in exchange for something, or did the republiQans ask for it in exchange for something? Or, because we are where we are, did they just do it because they’re that awful?

      I think the prevailing sentiment is the latter on here, but in the world of politics every vote is a bartering tool.

      You’re wrong. They did vote symbolically. They voted to support Trump and his actions.

      They are not on your side.
