Antagonizing Biden has no present or future negative consequences on their wealth, unlike antagonizing #PutschistenFührer Trump (if he wins).

Yeah, whatever their "platform" says, it'll be, as the old verse goes - Writ in water
Or, more bluntly, as the old saying goes:

In Europe (which smartly neither has 2party system, nor semi feudal rules that simple majority is useless, one senator can block congress, president is not who gets most votes...) left-center-centerright cooperate to prevent fascism. In US they clip their noses to spite the face.

..2/ even get rid of a filibuster or antiquated semi feudal rules that 1 senator can block Senate - even if they get comfortable majority, so there's little chance they'll even contemplate ID.

It would be a part if it was done decades ago (as it would be one less thing Rs could do now to suppress voting) I didn't said it's a solution now (but if Rs don't get in power now, it is again a thing to be considered - if they get in power, it's a moot point for various reasons). But Ds won't.../2

2. Yes, I'm sure you're right, I was just contemplating long lost opportunity to get NID, one which would be initially paid by the Federal government (for a fraction of money given as corn subsidies, just one example). But it was not something politicians on both sides wanted.

1. I meant, even when they had the numbers for at least some things to change, they were not doing it out of some misplaced sense of fair play, or being themselves "members of the Club" (Ds also got money from NRA) or Roe is Law of the Land bs. Rs didn't have such qualms when they wanted something.

One can't but wonder if the only way for US to become "normal" country (not half Wild West with semi feudal rules & laws) is a bout of fascist dictatorship. Ah, well, next-next generation can maybe have an answer to that ;) If it doesn't bring the dystopian, post apocalyptic world, that is 😎

Yes if you do it NOW (but even then what's government for if you can't use its money & resources to rectify things ;)
Just like with gun control, bringing SC up to the actual number of Circuits, getting rid of (semi)feudal rules & laws, etc, Ds have been complicit in not doing it.

Maybe if Democrats haven't for decades joined their republican buddies in opposition of a national identity card, maybe all those poorer people wouldn't have to worry about additional documentation. But, hey, ID is "totalitarian thingy" so there's that 😎

They need Stalin to teach them errors of their ways. But at least there'll be some cold comfort in knowing that under #PutschistenFührer they will soon learn (and then some).

Actually, they'll be complementary.
#PutschistenFührer will get his emperor's immunity (one way or another - directly now, or by delaying court cases until after the coronation) and when he sits on the throne, he'll make sure that all Online Content is uniform...or else ;)

It all began decades ago, with wrong turn at Albuquerque ;) with Storm Front. If that was "killed" right away (as was then practice in many countries) the whole world would be thankful 😎 and levels of indoctrination and ignorance would be, at least, significantly slower in developing.

PD's levodopa medication helps to treat the physical symptoms (stiffness, slowness, tremors) by increasing low dopamine levels. It can improve some brain function (memory, planning,...) but it can also cause hallucinations and other mental problems.

But all praise goes to #XFührer - just like the Soviet story how Stalin is great: Once bunch of children played in front of his window and broke it with a football - and Stalin took the ball and returned it to them, instead of killing them.

Well, one "good" thing about Left cutting their nose to spite the face, i.e. #PutschistenFührer Trump's second term, will be that when that term ends (one way or another) there won't be any Left left ;)
