After reading an article about gerrymandering that complained about how the Democrats got more votes while the Republicans got more seats in congress, my eyes betrayed me and drifted down to the comments. I noticed two in particular because they kept coming up over and over. (paraphrased representatives below to capture the theme)
From the right...
The Democrats won't take responsibility for their proposals failing.
From the left...
It's hard to defend the inaction of the appeaser-in-chief
So one thing that the comments seem to agree on is that when Republicans block a vote or vote against something, the Democrats should be blamed.
Swell.
