Obviously the debt limit stuff is awful, but what route does he have to a fiscally sound government? Cutting spending (which is supposedly getting to be mostly social security and medicare) or raising taxes (mmm mmm yummy)? How do you make that appeal to a large enough portion of Americans?
This is the thing. People act as if either the BBB passes or some thousand year lolbert Reich of sound fiscal policy will begin, as if those are the two options. The unfortunate reality is either we get some variant of this bill, or we will get something that the swamplords will all agree to override a Trump veto on.
If you want sound fiscal policy, the best way forward is to continue trying to take over the GOP, not making a third party that will just guarantee Democrat control for a few cycles at least.
Doesn't mean the BBB is perfect or even good, but there are good aspects that are quite important. Even the 1% remittance tax that they cucked on to reduce is better than the current status quo.

This is the best way forward for basically all aspects of politics and our country. We continue to try and wrangle control of the Right into something that actually helps us, while at the same time trying to prevent a "no going back now" event from happening.
That's the actual dichotomy at work. Either you are full accelerationist and want to make things worse to reach the collapse, or you need to start pushing the boulder back however small that push is. Including a lot of substandard and compromised pushes, because the alternative is usually much worse. However repugnant that feels to do.
Nigger fatigue needs time to seed and grow to a high level before we can even seriously talk about TND, for example.
