WHAT IN THE WORLD ARE YOU
DOING?!?
Last night, 16 Senate Democrats voted with Republicans to advance a crypto-friendly bill that will enable Trump’s corruption. Instead of standing up to Trump, these 16 Democrats decided they’d rather do a big favor for the crypto industry and legitimize an avenue for Trump to collect bribes.
It’s okay to disagree about the best ways to expand healthcare coverage or make housing more affordable. Those disagreements are a healthy part of a big pro-democracy tent. But it shouldn’t be hard to get every Democrat to oppose helping Trump accept bribes from billionaires and foreign governments.
A vote like this feeds cynicism about the Democratic Party not being real and not being about what they purportedly stand for.
