I don’t understand why Democrats keep citing things that aren’t the rules. The GOP play by the rules & win—ruthlessly and viciously, but they win. The Democrats keep imagining they win in a game w different rules. They also fail to use the rules they could use to win. https://twitter.com/ariberman/status/1308443771525312512
There is no popular vote rule!
There is hypocrisy rule!
There is no Senators w more constituents should have more say rule!
The Dems COULD “go low” (govt shutdown, impeachment, whatever) to buy time.
They won’t use these rules & will settle for being losers & whine.

There is *no* hypocrisy rule!
The Dems also don’t respect “the will of the people.” If they did, they’d be for Medicare for All, student debt relief and robust state support in & beyond the pandemic.
If the Democrats came out and said “We support taxing Wall Street transactions, support student debt jubilee, will created M4A,” they’d win over a majority of voters in a landslide & activate an activists firewall. But they, too, are playing to a minority.
The Democrats didn't fight with the rules with Garland, either—a two-part failure on Obama's part. 1st, leftists didn't care for Garland so there was little grassroots fight. 2nd, Obama & the Dems had 9 MONTHS they could have raised hell w rules. But they caved!
