This is excellent. We’ve got to go from whining and complaining about the disintegration of our democracy, to actually doing something about it. This is exactly the kind of thing that needs to be done. washingtonpost.com/opinions/…

But isn't this just more whining and complaining?

Nope. It’s supporting an action.

Supporting an action that has no chance of happening is just complaining disguised as high-minded statesmanship. Actually, it's even worse than that, it's a kind of virtue signalling - "hey, look how good and righteous we are [now that we're no longer in office]."

Actually the Senate is doing exactly what it was intended to do. Provide a stop gap against radical factionalism coming out of the House. McConnell is protecting the republic. Just because votes don't go your way doesn't mean "democracy is in peril".
