Jon Stewart Urges Dems to Fight Like Republicans and Exploit Loopholes | The Daily Show

[@s4bersun]

Finally someone said it. They are all complicit. It is maddening.

[@christophercomtois7175]

Finally. We have been saying no screaming it for years

[@beebuzz959]

I don't know that I'd say complicit, but they're playing nice and expecting the other side that is well known to do the opposite of, to do so too. Kinda like bringing a knife to a gunfight and expecting them not to shoot until they get close enough to stab. It's hard for me to be mad at them trying to follow the rules respectfully, especially when the press eats them up when they take any sidesteps from that, and we know the outcome of that is they lose. They also don't necessarily know who's going to win, and if they don't behave that way beforehand, there could also be ethics committees. I know they still aren't fighting the right way, I'm just saying they're trying to respect the laws and Congress, without realizing the outcomes. They need to fight differently, and maybe they were foolish to not realize republicans would be so brazen. But they also didn't always have the power to do so, or foresee what republicans would do. So that doesn't exactly make them complicit. The media also isn't on their side, so they don't get the microphone or sane-washing on a mass scale republicans do, and the media also frames them negatively. They'd be seen as horrific if they behaved the way republicans do. If that's complicit, I guess we all are because we all could do more. But yeah, they've been too trusting, possibly, and need to fight differently.

@@wolfmanjackxl1691 If you're trying to stop a fascist from gaining power, and purporting to lead the side opposing them, then it's your DUTY to take that into consideration and do what it takes to win. The electorate voted the way they did because of propaganda and a failure of messaging on the other side. Point blank. They failed. They let the GOP propagandize Americans, and did nothing to stop it, thus allowing them to be misinformed. They had levers of power available to prevent it, but chose not to use it in order to follow norms. And now we have a fascist wanna-be dictator in office with nothing stopping him.

Thank you for calling out the Democratic party. I understand taking the high road, but that high road is driving us right into the ground.

[@VFall80]

The demonization of Trump and his supporters was very much taking the low road--and that's why they lost

[@macdaddynick1751]

Please explain “high road” give 6 examples of high road Dems took. Use them in the sentence. Was it a high road not having primaries? Was it a high road to call a guy Fascist and scaring everyone but then changing the narrative on a dime? Was it a high road to pretend the person you’re putting forth is sharp as a tack and then changing your mind when people found out he isn’t? Paying for endorsements? I mean I can go on and on. Democrats took so many “high roads” that people chose to vote for a felon fascist who’s going to prevent us from voting in the future. Stop Coping seek accountability of your party. They have failed miserably, because they took no high roads in this election. This is not really about the republicans, because democrats won them an election by doing exact opposite of what they pretended to stand for.

[@ChonkUm]

This is the problem, and why the Democratic party lost so bad. They have done the opposite of take the high road for the last decade. They tried to sell a lie of hatred, based on hatred of their own. Every one of those lies was a hoax in and amongst itself, when you add them all up together, you can understand how mainstream media lost their credibility a long time ago, with people that aren't as dug in to a side, and just want an unbiased reporting of what's going on. Instead of understanding that doubling down on fear-mongering on mainstream media, only made them more of a joke on social media. Every single lie can now be fact checked in real time. Instead of realizing that, and trying to understand the internet's impact on the election, they just spent millions on celebrities who they felt had the most influence on social media. That obviously only made it worse to the discerning eye. Eating a slice of humble pie, now that the majority of Americans have laid down a mandate, is called maturity, and it's totally fair. Acting like now you have a right to take the gloves off, is just as fugazi is everything that got them in this situation in the first place. Until they understand this, say will keep losing. The Establishment showed its full hand, in their attempts to destroy their opponent. America watched. If mainstream media has made you hate your fellow Americans, and feel like they're the ones you need to be at war with, then you have taken the bait hook line and sinker. Take two trips to the mirror, and call us in the morning.

[@pmpowalisz]

The GOP wouldn’t have gone along with the ACA if it was a cure for cancer, stop pretending like you need to compromise, because they sure wouldn’t have. I live in MN, and when Walz won reelection in 2022, it came with slim majorities in the House and Senate and he absolutely ran with it.
