Why do we have Democrats planning to work with Trump, after Mitch McConnell's infamous statement that the GOP

[lees1975]

would resist and oppose everything President Obama did?

No Democrat who declares they are going to help Trump achieve his ends, which are not American idealism's ends, will ever get my vote.

1. because 'it's a free country?'

[Think. Again.]

7. Do you really think our elected REPRESENTATIVES...

...are free to do what they personally want rather than to, well, REPRESENT those that elected them?

[RockRaven]

2. Because few if any elected officials can get reelected only with Democratic votes

and this country is chock full of morons who vote against their personal material self-interests because of dumb shit like "bipartisanship" and other worthless catchphrases repeated ad nauseam by megacorp-run media?

3. Who, how many Democrats declared they're going to help Trump achieve which goals?

[Hekate]

5. Excellent question

[Hekate]

4. Because the good of the country requires negotiation when the other side is in the majority?

[state of stupid]

6. need more context

I may have missed something, but the only thing I can find is from The Washington Examiner
which has a lean right rating. While I cannot say they are extreme they will write their story
with a right-wing slant. So, if some Democrats say they will work in a bipartisan effort it could
be they are willing to work on things they can agree on and block things they disagree with.
That is exactly what Joe Biden did. He worked with the RINO controlled house to get bills
passed. I am a boomer so please excuse the saying back in the day I knew and worked with
Republicans. We would sit around on politics and talk about who was going to win and why.
After the election if my guy won my Republican knew and expected that gentle nudge in the
ribs and my guy won tee he he. On the other my loses then I get nudge in ribs and my guy
won tee he he treatment. Then we would sit there, and both talk how we were going to be
bent over table and the only question was is going lubricated or not. For example, I can agree
with principle of balanced budget because I to practice it in myself. Where I strongly disagree
are their solutions. I could not read the article without signing up, so I will take it with a grain
of salt and wait until I can see the whole thing before I call anyone disloyal or a traitor.

[Think. Again.]

8. trump has been very, very clear about his intentions for our country...

...anyone at all who is willing to work with him to achieve those intentions is just another self-serving con/grifter.
