Mary Trump - Democrats Fight Back

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Instead of pointing fingers and acting like the entire party has to be dismantled after an agonizingly close result, some elected Democrats are starting to focus their anger in the right direction; others are taking action against Donald’s flagrant disregard for the norms governing the transition and our democracy.

The inimitable Rep Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) speaking truth to power as she took on the cruel absurdity that it is white men in our country who suffer from oppression, is a highlight from this week:

There has been no oppression for the white man in this country. You tell me which white men were dragged out of their homes. You tell me which one of them got dragged all the way cross an ocean and told that, “You are going to go and work. We are going to steal your wives. We are going to rape your wives.” That didn’t happen. That is oppression. We didn’t ask to be here. We’re not the same migrants that you all constantly come up against. We didn’t run away from home, we were stolen. So, yeah, we are going to sit here and be offended . . . and don’t let it escape you that it is white men on this side of the aisle, telling us, telling people of color on this side of the aisle, that y’all are the ones being oppressed; that y’all are the ones being harmed.”

Many of us have observed for a while now that those in Democratic leadership positions continue to shackle themselves to rules that no longer exist. Finally, it seems as though many others are recognizing that doesn’t have to be the case.

Pull your heads out of your asses, Democratic leadership.
