Just fyi… when the Democrats passed their healthcare bill in the middle of the night it sparked the tea party. GOP is toast for this… IF the Dems can get their crap together

The tea party was an astroturfed group funded by white supremacists who used it to sell birtherism and increased surveillance and policing. It had nothing to do with the ACA. That was a smokescreen. You can't repeat it because it was never real.

This current iteration of the Democratic Party has never missed an opportunity to miss an opportunity. It will require a complete overhaul and actually getting back to their core values. That starts with getting all new/younger leadership.

I really feel the main reason for the tea party was having a black man as a president. The repercussions of the Obama presidency continue today. 😞

Trump literally said, "I will be a dictator on day one." Republican Congress literally defined 'today' as lasting all year long. Every Republican voter is a traitor to democracy. That includes RINOs like you.

I want our next congress to be the American ppl’s retribution!!! These fascist wannabes need to suffer the consequences for the suffering they are inflicting on all of us!

Adam, I don’t believe this at all. There were half a dozen Reps who were against it, to include Chip Roy (TX), who after a day delay, voted for it. Saw him after and he said that he hopes that the Senate will address the deficit that he so cares about. They are all sell outs. Cowards all.

See the difference. Dems try to pass healthcare in the middle of the night to help the middle class and poor while the GOP screw the poor and middle class helping billionaires. I couldn’t have said it better!

Agreed. There are already weekend protests going on. This momentum has to be bridled and used by the Democratic Party. People want change from the nonsense going on right now. All people, from both sides. Tired of Trump.

Very deceitful to vote in the middle of the night, so that the public won't find out. Dems, you gotta FIGHT FOR THE PEOPLE to save your seat in politics. 2026, I will vote every Republican out of office in my state. You took an oath to defend the Constitution, and to serve the PEOPLE.

Reps and Dems; 2 cheeks of the same ass. The US system is the problem; the parties are just a symptom. Been this way since day 1. A system created by rich WASP men for rich WASP men. Gaslighting a population for 250yrs.

I love your fight but that’s not what sparked the tea party. Here’s hoping there will be a backlash but I think we all have the problem backwards. Trump really is just a symptom of the total lack of leadership. I’m happy you’re trying though. Honestly.

The democrats have devolved into being a herd of cats. Good luck trying to unify them around a core set of principals when the party has intentionally attempted to weave together a pile of relatively small interest groups and call it a "party".

The democrats will only get their shit together if we force them to do so…far too many of them are willing to sit back and just expect to win future elections because of how badly the republicans are fucking our country

Just FYI the tea party assholes you were a part of made this fascist horseshit all possible. Nice going. And, if you didn't see, this bill ALSO just essentially eliminated the ability of the courts to control Trump's regime, so no election is going to fix it. www.justsecurity.org/113529/terri...

justsecurity.orgA Terrible IdeaDean Chemerinsky discusses the reconciliation bill’s provision that would restrict federal courts’ authority to hold government officials in contempt for violating court orders

You would think the Republican Blood-soaked Rich Man’s Tax Break bill would have something in it for Dem's to use. (PS the blood comes from all the average ppl who will die as a result of this bill)

Are they toast? GOP in many districts have convinced their constituents that cuts are good, illegals get benefits, and funding the military is good. And. If they don't stick to Ts agenda, they'll get primaried C'mon

There are only two ways that MAGA is leaving the government. One is them being carried out kicking and screaming; the other is being carried out. I don't envy anyone who resides (no such thing as 'citizenship' now) in the #DPRA, but talking about MAGA isn't defeating MAGA: it's spreading MAGA.

“Get their crap together?” What does that even mean? How about some suggestions as we are a senate vote away from giving Donald the legal right to ignore court orders? You did plenty to enable this monster. Get off your high horse and offer some help!

Adam don’t say “if Dems can get their act together.” Say exactly what they should be doing. Better yet use the contacts of Dems in congress that you have. Each time we point one finger at someone else to take action, our 3 fingers are pointing at us to take that action. Let’s stop 👉 & take action.

The Tea Party was an astroturf group, not a legit grassroots movement. That said, without loud, consistent opposition leadership, harnessing reaction to this scam is going to be impossible.

Why does anyone think the GOP is toast? They don’t plan to ever relinquish power. Don’t you all understand that? It’s not “only for a few more years”. They aren’t ever planning on leaving. All this insane shit happening is just the start. And nobody is stopping them. I want to be wrong so badly

Regardless of what actually sparked the Tea Party, getting their act together should not involve having Democrats emulate a single thing the Republicans did back at that time. The Tea Party was a racist, historically-illiterate, billionaire-funded backlash against common sense.

The Dems can get their crap together, that good sir is an oxymoron at the highest level of the word. With a roughly 30% approval rating, they are the ones who will be toast. This goofy game they are playing with the be nice mentality isn't sitting well with a mass majority...

The work starts NOW. People, don’t wait for someone else to get out the midterm vote—more voter-eligible people didn’t vote than voted either R or D. Sorry Adam, you’re great, but #NoMoreRepublicans

While you might theoretically be correct, I just hate that it's always the Democrats fault for not policing the Republicans crime better, when America voted for this 💩. they control the house, the Senate, the Supreme Court, and the big fat orange crime Lord himself

Yes. This. It’s always about the ‘othering’. It’s a woman’s fault if she is attacked while wearing a short skirt or a low-cut top. No. It’s a black person’s fault if they get shot running from a old angry white man who wants to put them ‘in their place’. No. The Republicans own this Bill.
