Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsIf Putin is giving away US military positions to the Iranians and Republicans are saying nothing,
Why the HELL aren't Democrats screaming about it and repeating the word TRAITORS?
Why can't we ever put Republicans on the defensive? This makes me crazy!
Can you imagine in the shoe was on the other foot?

and Senator Ron Johnson seem to be compromised. And look @ all the Republicans who would
not convict Trump after a slam dunk case about January 6th.

(11,143 posts)Tit for tat... 100% surveillance and battlefield intel for the Ukrainians at no charge, just to help them embarrass Putin further. Dare Putin to release his dirt on Trump - and FUCK TRUMP and his entire bloodline. If Baron is not wearing the first pair of American boots to hit Iranian soil, then we ought to storm the White House and sense Corporal Bone Spurs in his stead...

(1,340 posts)Republicans have none, so it falls on deaf ears.
They don't have any sense of shame or humility. They lack empathy and embrace cruelty. Getting defensive would be seen as weak because they are not on the attack. Those 'Alpha bois' can't be having any of that.

(15,342 posts)Irresponsible Media has their head so far up this mis-Administration 's ass they're eating half digested Big Macs. And right now, the Department of Holy War is telling any responsible Media who is trying to verify "...nuh-huh, Russia is our friend in this. Those Woke Demoncraps are lying on us because they want to discredit our Great Leader, affect Warfighting Morale, and make us fail on the Battlefield...."
You can scream all you want into a void.
We (DU) are figuratively in a void when it comes to reaching outside our region of the US's stovepiped mass Media environment.
Democratic Politicians are ignored as being boring policy wonks, being too friendly to businesses rather than "normal people" (GOP light), being too by the book, not being entertaining - and more importantly - not in power.
If no one outside the void is listening, and you don't have the power to make them listen, they're going to continue sleepwalking into disaster.
