If they lock up a member of Congress, dems will fold faster than a house of cards.
They have no teeth except when there's a person with mildly center left policies or a middle eastern country that's not giving them unlimited access to their oil

We already had a problem, the democrats could've figured this out when they started arresting students and teachers during the Biden admin. They were too busy navel gazing and tut-tutting to understand the A to B. You're correct, they will absolutely fold, they stand for literally nothing.
Her and Sanders didn't even have the courage or wherewithal to head down to El Salvador to back up Garcia, had to leave it to some no-name centrist Senator
Fair weather ass pretenders
AOCIA showing she only cares to do photo ops and social media stunts, not enough to actually do ANYTHING else
"Oh I know, I'll vote 'present' on this measure that everyone with a soul is against"
"Garcia who??? I have to arm Israel sweety"
She couldnt even wear a dress that says "eat the rich", like she toned it down. If you do social media stunts as your “revolutionary” tactic at least have it a bit more confrontational.
What's funny is that was still too far for the reactionaries. People were flipping the fuck out, both gala attendees and chuds on social media.
If you try to compromise and your opponents still think your milquetoast outfit is leftwing terrorism, then you should have just done the leftwing terrorism.
Maybe she knew she wouldn't get a photo op
Nice to know she and the rest of Congress draws the line right before themselves. "Representatives", my ass.
That's actually kind of interesting. Will the Dems call their followers to violence if their own lives are on the line? The capitol riot may have traumatized enough of them
They'll flee to Ottawa, form a government in exile, and wonder why they aren't getting NED money
Please, trump could lock the doors to the House of Representatives and start shooting dems one by one and these useless fucking ghouls would be voting for him to shoot other dems before them
Baath Party Congress of 2025
that's exactly what person who doesn't want to do resistance nonsense would say
I can excuse rounding up average citizens but if they touch politicians we're going to have a problem.
dems take the house, AOC becomes speaker
aoc kills trump and vance, then pardons herself as president
Fam, if you've found a door to ~~Narnia~~ the timeline chuds imagine we live in, tag us in
She's right. Congress would have a problem.
Just thinking back to how Rashida Talib was treated when she was trying to bring attention to the Palestinian genocide and how none of her peers backed her up.
But now that Trump is president its a good time to stand up for peers since bad things only happen when there's a dang Cheeto in the White House.
I remember how badly January 6th scared her out of a legitimate concern that they would kill her. She also became even more complicit with the Dems after that. Chances are she would fold as well.
I won't do anything about anyone else, but if you come for me, I might try to stop you.
glad to hear we don't yet have a problem
Yes, you... a member of the Democratic Party... will have a problem when the Republican Party starts locking up members of the Democratic Party. You will be in jail, prison, or disappeared to places unknown.
I am sure the trump admin is shaking in its boots
What are you going to do? Impeach him like you all did before? Hexs comitting genocide same as . You had years of
and
to unfuck the PATRIOT ACT which all this shit is a derivative of but just made it worse. Your party made Trump as a STRATEGY.
The majority of Dems in Congress would vote to allow the president to kill other Dems in Congress as long as they weren't one of them. lol. What? Trump could strangle her on live TV and nothing. Nothing at all, would happen. The US is cooked.
Keyboard warrior princess Alexandria
I hope Trump does a Saddam-style purge on the entire Congress
Crying from the other side of the fence
What's she going to do? Write a strongly worded letter?
Awwww what are these politicians gonna do? Fillibuster on a meeting? File a complaint? Yell on social media? Oh wait they are already doing that one.
Call me when they do something actually useful.
"We are going to have a problem" should mean guillotines. The tried and true means of getting rid of tyranny.
We had our chance to give Ilhan Omar a Gundam.
She didn't blow that chance. We did.
Mass deporting people to prisons without trial is an acceptable political disagreement, but god help you if you touch a Dem I guess.
we were supposed to be above the 'rules based law and order'!
fuck i'm tired of rich people concern trolling about the kinda stuff working class people experince everyday
uh huh
:punished-aoc:
She and rest of the democrats are going to wear more matching coloured clothing and SLAM the white house? or some other nonsense gesture that democrats love to perform?
She's gonna vote so fucking hard he won't even know what happened.
It will achieve nothing. But he also won't know what happened.
What because touching the political brahmin class is unconstitutional?
