Not picking on Katy, 95% of cable news anchors will be told what narrative to follow.

and they won't be able to continue this . But, who knows?

What Republicans are good at is bashing any and all bills or proposals that Democrats come up with. Republicans are very good at attacking Democrats, especially with the help of the right wing corporate controlled M$M.

Last 2 days of "both parties are the same."
I wish it were true! Sadly, I think the attacks will continue, and I'll continue to push back whenever I hear people say things like: Democrats are the "party of the one percent"; or that Democrats are "ideologically bankrupt" --- ARGH!!
It's just a repeated variation of the "both parties are the same" attack. Such things are CLEARLY lies and smears! I have the greatest level of contempt for anyone who continues to spread these types of lies.
This is taking so long!
Agreed! But no matter how long it takes we need to hang tough and stand strong against our party's enemies and saboteurs... and against ANYONE who seeks to do and say things that weakens our party.
All I'm saying is that a divided and weakened Democratic Party only serves to benefit the GOP (and the Russians!)
