I'm very disappointed about all if it, tbh. Politics as usual, I guess.
Yeah, I hear you u/Mark2 ! We're dying by a thousand cuts here.
I'm getting really tired of hearing the good guys keep excusing these decisions with, "Welp, we need the other side's votes after all... Maybe next time, champ."
I'm sorry, but what?
In what universe will the libtards ever quit trying to advance their agenda? Am I supposed to sit here and hope that "next time" they'll happily concede without a fight?
"Well, what else would you suggest we do? Let the country go into a free fall? You gotta compromise."
Ehh, but to what extent? At this point we're not quibbling about minor differences of opinion, but face EXTREME variances in not only our beliefs, but in the overall path our country should be taking. What if we have literal traitors within our midst within the higher echelons of government, bought and paid for by another country's coin? We just keep finding that middle ground of go along to get along?
What ever happened to ACTUAL patriotic duty? Like Civil War time leadership that cut off traitors at the quick?
Or am I overlooking something here? Oversimplifying the matter?
Maybe in some ways I've answered my own question. This type of betrayal and mixed influence has "always" been around and will likely always be here. I feel like I'm on the "right side" of the matter, but what about my fellow countryman who feels the same about his beliefs? Do I really want these matters resolved by threat of force and bloodshed?
But there again, that's me being rational and thoughtful. While the "other side" has Antifa and the like who act first and think never...

Oh well, sorry I got long-winded there.
