6. Post effect shutdown - Dems are not trusted at all because they always cave.

Mid terms which were looking good for us just got a whole lot bleaker! Dems proved they don't have a spine and don't care about Americans having health care at all. The ACA just died and tens of thousands of people's lives are much more at risk now and people will die because of this!! So freaking pissed off I can't stand it. Can't stand the Dems pretending like the R;s are rational and that they didn't just cooperate with the fascists. Had to turn off Joe Shmoe when Kaine was on there lying through his teeth about R's not completely gutting the ACA.
