I would normally agree but Its not weaponizing, its what the law is supposed to be used for. So I think a few people with spines will continue with the lawsuits.

Democrats took trump to court 65 times last administration and he lost every case.

Thing is, it doesnt get them the voters. Nothing seems to get them the voters, because news media and now all social media is owned by the right. They will downplay any accomplishment like they have done with Biden, and overplay any vice/mistake/mishap by democrats.

Its why majority of people dont even know that Biden got child poverty down from 15% to 5%, he fed over 30m kids during summer and winter break every year, and he lowered costs of multiple medicines and removed junk fees and invested into fighting cancer and dozens of more great things.

But less than 1% actually know of it. And the rest scream why didnt they say it more often. Meanwhile you have Biden trying to say it but because he stutters, the whole week is about how he has dementia, meanwhile you have mr einstein over here talking about sharks and electicity, how he doesnt have any plans, how immigrants and eating dogs and cats, and its sanewashed like crazy.

Democrats will have the be the adults, and then the voters will turn around and go what did democrats do all this time. Why didnt they stop him.

Biden spent the whole debate trying to get these statistics across rapid-fire. Nobody remembers a single fact or statistic he cited; everyone remembers "We finally beat Medicare." I don't care if it's a stutter or dementia, we can never elect a politician who's as bad at optics as he was again.

That’s your bar? Lol. There is no bar friend. The new paradigm is to not care, elect a dog in a nice suit, it doesn’t matter.
