    only when you’re forced to compromise with deranged white supremacist apocalypse cultists who want to stop literally anything good from ever happening.

    you can take really large steps really fast, or even bounding leaps, if you don’t hamstring yourself.

        so, there area a few historical examples.

        one of them was called ‘operation overlord’, and it didn’t quite work, but I think if you followed through a little better, you could be free of these bastards.

      It was passed without Republican support, so I guess you’re describing centrist Democrats?

        oh, so it was a compromise for literally no reason. cool

        hey what do you call a compromise where you don’t get anything from the other side? is that ‘capitulation’ or ‘just doing what you always wanted to in the first place, without any excuse’?
