Fun Fact. Every year is an election year. Also Fun Fact. He hasn’t been sitting on his ass for the last three years, he’s been pushing legislation all the time. How you or the news wants to phrase things doesn’t change that.
In those three years of pushing legislation why didn’t they tackle this “winning” issue? If I were elected I would assume I only have four years and do all I can in that time and not hold an issue hostage for re-election, but I’m not a politician.
When you’re actually doing your job, you can’t change everything overnight. He has a ton on his plate, and hasn’t had a legislative mandate to pass whatever the party wants. They never had a liberal majority in the Senate, they have to deal with two senators who don’t agree with everything they want.
Wouldn’t the correct response be to hold a press conference or post something on social media to communicate something vital like that to the people? “Here’s what’s going on, here’s what we propose, and here’s what we we think should happen next. Make up your mind and reach out to your senator, we’ve provided a list of contact information here.” Seems reasonable right? Yet almost no politician does this and instead we hyperfocus on controversial issues, kinda seems intended almost as if there’s an agenda being followed to me. So yes, I criticize and expect better from elected officials, if someone offers evidence to the contrary I’ll change my mind but I haven’t seen any evidence to the contrary that the man’s really representing me and I’d appreciate a ranked choice voting so we aren’t limited to two parties with a single option.
Remember back when you could solve issues without it needing to be an election year? Me either.
