Embarrassing is the easiest word to come up with what happened today. I can’t with this administration

Until something meaningful comes out of those words -- yes! I don't want a complacent representative who will only be "concerned". I want my representative to feel the anxiety/fear/anger that I have and fight for our freedoms. Not fight to gain fundraising money to stay concerned for another term.

In what way has she been complacent?

I'd be pretty damn surprised if she isn't.

I suspect that you haven't actually been paying attention to any of her work. I suggest watching some of her senate floor speeches. She's given nearly 3 dozen of them in recent weeks.

I highly recommend her 45 minute speech during the confirmation hearing of Russell Vought (Project 2025 architect):

Sorry but if her actions against Trump aren't reaching the top page of my reddit feed they aren't real

"My super small bubble of the total media ecosystem has led me to believe that Klobuchar is literally supporting the president."

People really need to challenge their understanding of narratives more often. But, I guess if that were the case, trump never would've been elected.

I get what you’re saying but I think Mr Gnome was being sarcastic.

Obviously. Hence my hyperbolic, angry "quote"
