Not saying theyre helpless. They should do what they can.

But... When Democrats are in power people complain about Democrats. When Republicans are in power people complain about... Democrats.

It's exhausting. Find a new schtick or actually participate in primaries to get these people out.

People complain about the Dems because they have not been using the powers they've been granted. They are elected to pass policies and fight the Republican fascist agenda and they have seemingly rolled over more often than not. Rachet Effect and all that.

It sucks that hearing these complaints is exhausting to you, but as can be seen from this thread, there are lots of people making excuses for the Democrat party that seemingly need to hear this stuff. These folks are not helping primary useless Dems, instead spending their time and energy deflecting criticism away.
