    I think there’s an element of spite to it. They want to punish voters for failing them and they want voters to know it.

      Never attribute malice to what can be explained by serving the interests of Capital. The Dems make good money by feigning resistance, I think they showed their hand a bit obviously this time.

        They showed their hand so obviously on purpose. It’s too obvious to be anything other than intentional.

        And that serves the interests of Capital too. It’s prole control, put them in their place and remind them that Capital is in charge.
