Instead of rejecting the framework altogether, Dems should at least try to engage the prick and gets things they want. After all, the only way to get shit done is by compromising, and rejecting the framework altogether via twitter without even trying to negotiate won't help anyone.
Being cynical and saying "everybody sucks, man" doesn't prove your point. How many times have the Dems tried to get with the Republicans and the Republicans have obstructed? If you forgot, ,there was a CIR passed in the Senate a few years ago and Boner (yeah I know) sat on it and never brought it up to a vote in the House.

The Democrats may lack a backbone at times, they may lose focus at times and in-fight (looking at you Bernie Bros), and they often shoot themselves in the foot but they are not what's holding up a good immigration bill.

That's the reality. I am not aligning with a less crappy option, which is what you are doing.

You have no position though. Either you're in 3rd party lala land or the choice is Dems vs. Pubs.

La la group don't have any positions either. I am picking am evil I am picking the lesser one. Don't forget 2006 senate bill asked a immigration bill and again a republican house speaker wouldn't put it up for vote.
