If Republicans were in charge and they were in this situation, they absolutely would get rid of the filibuster and pack the court. One party seems intent on undermining our democracy, and the other seems unwilling or unable to stop them.

Not a democracy, but you are right, one party will use the power voters give them, the other will not and play victim to drum up support to get more power to self-enrich itself while doing nothing for their voters. But, this is on the voters, they have to take a stand.

BOTH parties are intent on undermining our democracy. The DNC rigged their primaries against Sanders TWICE and argued in court they don't have to have fair elections (and the court agreed). The democrats also got Green Party candidates kicked off ballots in multiple states.

That is their game. Each party plays their part perfectly. It is working as planned.

DNC doesn’t undermine democracy? Both parties do the voter no favors and one is no better than the other.

Democrats are the #PalookaParty - taking cheap dives on SURE WINS in return for money and power.
America is a one party nation.

the democratic party has been controlled opposition since the 80s when the kochs bankrolled the democratic leadership council to purge the party of new dealers
