    Reminder of when and why I “entered the chat”:

    It seems the GOP can make things plenty worse in a hell of a hurry, but when it comes to righting the wrongs, it’s all too hard.

    The point – that you’ve largely conceded above but had to do some kind of interpretive dance first – is that “righting the wrongs” is often harder than making things worse is in a great many circumstances and that’s why they’re able to do it so quickly.

    It’s not “all too hard” sarcastically like you seemed to be implying. It’s “all too hard” sincerely and in reality.

      Righting the policy wrongs is the first step, the easier step and the one they’re faltering on - you can’t begin to fix the damage the bad policies have done if you don’t deal with the bad policies doing the damage first.

      If you think they’re done kind of complex dance, I’m comfortable saying that’s a you issue, my dude.

        Again not every policy has to be reversed in order to start fixing the damage, and not every policy needs to be reversed in general.

        This discussion was a fruitless flat circle that nobody else will read anyway. Have a good one.
