Republicans pass legislation through the two houses of Congress they entirely control, a Republican president signs it.
You: “The Democrats pushed this through.”
They exist for the important work of censoring critics.
My point is that it’s very odd to focus on the Democrats specifically when Republicans brought the bills up for a vote, and Republicans also basically unanimously voted for it…more Republicans voted for it than Democrats, and a Republican president is signing the bill.
Republicans pushed it through, Democrats voted for it also. You are allowed to criticize either party for voting for it, but you are being inaccurate if you are saying the Democrats are disproportionately responsible for passage, as the term “pushed it through” means.
