    Yeah, they think they’re making a clever point, but Democrats literally tried to do many of those things, and were consistently blocked by Republicans.

    I swear, these people have no fucking concept of how their own country functions.

      You’re right that they don’t have any idea how the country functions. When polled 3/4 of Americans can’t name the 3 branches of government. Only 17 states require students to pass a civics test to graduate high school. Only 9 states and DC require students to take a year of US government or civics. 8 states have no civics requirements at all.
