The Democrats don't WANT to defeat the Republicans because they NEED their favorite excuse in order to get away with the fuckery they like to pull all the time, all their insider trading and industrial kickbacks especially.

As someone outside the US this circular debate about US citizens needing guns, because constitution is crazy. We're over halfway through the year and the US is on track to break annual records, for gun deaths. Yet nothing happens because guns are constitutionality protected. It's just crazy to an outsider to see absolutely nothing happen as a result. Boom more dead children, thoughts, nothing, boom more dead people. But if only we could do something, boom, more dead children, sigh, yeah but it's the law. We must protect ourselves from bears. Boom more dead people. Silence.
