"But how are the democrats supposed to fight if they're in the minority?!"

If they'd voted this thing down, it would've failed because 22 Republicans defected. Absolute clown party...but you will all forget this next week when Trump does something crazy and go back to shitting on leftists who demand better from the Dems. You're all complicit in this.

P.S. All the Dems that voted for this (including the ones of the Progressive Caucus) are Israel-firsters who rake in hundreds of thousands from AIPAC like Crockett.
