I'd like to see Dems in Senate put forth 2 resolutions: 1 to condemn McTurd for his obstructionism

and then another to condemn his complicity in racism by siding with Dump's incendiary racist behavior in public.

The resolutions probably wouldn't pass, but at least they would get some media attention.

McConnell controls what comes to the floor, so they couldn't get that to the floor without Republican votes

McTurd's obstructionism everytime he prevents something from going to the floor. It's not getting enough media attention.

Dems in the House are passing important legislation and it ends up in Mitch's Senate crypt.

they would need more than just 4 Republicans to get to 51 votes as well.
