    Another example of how Republicans gain power and immediately try to do stuff then worry if theyre allowed.

    While Dems get power and spend years deciding if they can do something before trying, and sometimes it still gets shut down and by then they’ve wasted too much time.

    I wish Dems tried as hard as Republicans. When only one sides does stuff like this, it makes a fight pretty lopsided. Because Dems have to spend all their time undoing what republicans just did.

    It puts us constantly on the defensive and why we’ve been slowly drifting to the right for decades now.

      You think that the Democrats not changing the locks on office doors out of spite makes them weak?

        No, I think Pelosi saying her replacement got the person she replaced getting an extra 30 days longer than she’s had is kind of pointless, and that extra 30 days would only be if he kept the office up to his resignation…

        She’s had the extra office for 10 months now…

        That’s more than enough time to move out.

        It’s nowhere close to the most important issue right now, but it is a legitimate point that she should have been out long ago.
