    They should stand up, speak out, and work on actual opposition.

    Saying they should do nothing, support his bullshit policies for now, and wait til some indeterminate future date before holding him or anyone else accountable is so ridiculous and overused at this point you should feel embarrassed for continuing to use it.

    … what are you even talking about? Do I look like straw to you?

      “Standing up” and “speaking out” are doing nothing. You’re advocating for shit like this which does nothing while arguing against things like impeachment which is something even if Republicans block it again. What exactly is accomplished by voting with Republicans to block it? What have they done in the interim instead of impeachment if that wasn’t the right move? You’re claiming that literally zero action is preferable to actual action even if that action is unlikely to succeed. This is defeatism wrapped in a cloak of nonsense.
