[Michigan] Senate Democrat [Elissa Slotkin] questions what Sanders, Ocasio-Cortez have ‘actually done’
lemmy.world[Michigan] Senate Democrat [Elissa Slotkin] questions what Sanders, Ocasio-Cortez have ‘actually done’ - Lemmy.World> “I can’t do what she [AOC] does, because we live in a purple state and I’m a
pragmatist.“ = compromise with the Nazis to keep your position > “Everyone you
mentioned has a lot of words, but what have they actually done to change the
situation with Donald Trump?” Uh gee maybe if the rest of y’all got on the same
page instead of impeding them and folding to the Republicans then we could
actually have some sort of defense against him and his cronies?
Who the fuck is Slotkin and why would anyone care what she thinks. POS neoliberals need to get bent.
Alas, she's our POS senator. We need to care what she thinks in that we need to control what she thinks, because she thinks a lot of wrong things. There was an anti-trans bill in the senate, and the Democrats filibustered it, and on the cloture vote, amazingly, All the Democrats correctly voted No on cloture. Except Slotkin and, like, one other, who did not vote. We needed her vote and she did not show up for us.
