If i had three wishes, my first wish is the power to clone our universe so we can get off this rock.

It also ages well.

Jeff Foxworthy??

Oooph 2021…

They'd use the one wish to manifest a second Senate Parliamentarian.
-
Heartbreakingly true 💔
-
Curious to know what was the original context of this evergreen joke
-
Fuck
-
If it was up to Schumer, he'd wish for whatever he thinks the fictitious couple, the Baileys, he made up would want.
-
Hey don't you judge Democrats like that! Americans don't want free universal healtcare, end police brutality against minorities, free legal abortions or affordable groceries - every American really wants is to send more money to Israel.
-
Sad. It’s not a joke.
-
This is actually wrong. The Democrats actually want to do the things they do - they aren't merely doing them to appease the Republicans.
-
Yup. Yup.

Image description: A screenshot of a post by Jules Suzdaltsev, @jules_su , datestamped 10:52 AM, May 28, 2021, that reads:
"Old joke:
If a genie gave Democrats three wishes, they'd negotiate down to one, and then wish for something they think Republicans would like."
-
-
Every one of my group chats is now just an endless unbroken stream of people howling bloody oaths against the Democrats who caved, so that's a fun data point
-
-
And then Republicans would spend a decade pretending that what they got wasn’t actually their idea.
-
GENOCIDE JOE!
ACA: Then, Obama didn't do enough for global warming & trans rights!
Infrastructure passed: Biden didn't fix the Post-Covid economy fast enough! He's too old & doesn't speak perfect!
Clowns to the left & jokes to the right.... stick in the middle with you. -Stealer wheels

It’s called decorum.
-
-
Party politics doesn't seem to help the public very much.
-
Negotiate down to one is brilliant
-
That's so fucking painful... shoot me, please.
-
Tbf, it was only 8 of the whole democrat senates who sold everyone out for their own gains. The move caused an uproar inside the party itself; and even outside of it as well.
-
This goes hard
-
"Its not MEEEE who is making that wish of course but could you... maybe... kill all black people? I think in the interest of bipartisanship this is very favourable." The average democrat.
-
Because that's the point of democracy. Trying to negotiate a single solution that apeals to everyone.
-
Why are we so bad at this? 🤦♀️

-
wow!
hadn't seen that one before but holy shit, how accurate!
-
Democrats need to grow a pair!

please read my tweets No

It's almost like the whole thing is a scam & both parties work together to benefit the rich and screw everyone else.
-
Alternatively, they would wish to give the other two wishes to the republicans and the republicans would detain and deport the Genie for being a creature of Middle-eastern mythology.

And Mel Brooks was really on to something:
-
I❣️ -never not accurate- as a true & honest phrase.
And I agree.
-
So right. But the drones pulling the party to the center will not allow real change.
-
Most accurate statement ever made
-
Democrats are like that dorky parent chaperone in teen movies who is all “Listen here, buddy, I‘m no pushover. I can tussle with the best of them….gosh dang it.”
-
God this is painfully accurate
-
Have you read the terms?
I know more about the settlement than you do, and I'm a retired Irishman.

I'm assuming you're talking Hollywood genie and not literary genie

Choked on my coffee there… 😂

They’d probably take advice from the song.

Democrats didn't need to surrender, but they chose to surrender. Timing was bad, voters were on their side, the courts were on the side of SNAP recipients, Trump was forcing Republicans to kill the filibuster. So why surrender if they didn't have to?
-
Know that’s right
-
These assholes need to grow a pair of balls because they screwing the rest of us. 🙄😑😩

Oh snap a .su domain in the wild!

What did they fuck up?

This is why every child born after January 1, 2026 will somehow be ineligible for any public health program, but in exchange will have $2000 deposited in a tax-advantaged health savings account as long as they have two working and married (to each other) parents. It's called a Grand Bargain.
-
Applies to the UK Labour Party as well. Both absolutely inept when it comes to serving the people.
-
Worse.
They’d ask the Republicans to suggest the third.
-
Ouch that’s accurate

I blocked Chuck's account on here. He should just fuck off and retire.

Wouldn't want to start a flame war on the internet. The only way to do that is to do nothing and then complain about the people who do.

LOL
-
Sad but true. Until the Democrats throw off the yoke of the corporatist in the party we will continue to be betrayed. We MUST find leaders that will support the American working people and NOT corporations!
-
Why anyone still thinks that establishment dems aren't working hand in hand with the gop to please their donors is beyond me. If you can't see that this shit is by design at this point you are legitimately too fucking stupid to talk to me
-
Actually it's literally not accurate, because it wasn't "Democrats" it was eight specific senators. So no, it's not accurate.
-
Well, there are no genies. Only the TV series. Fantasy is NOT reality.
-
Only thing I'd add is they'd want to means test the one chosen wish first
-
This was a joke in Spongebob
-
Every time
-
No lies detected. Poor genie.

Those hateful 8? I saw a resume of who they are, they could be Republicans and no one would ever question it.

Stealing this one.

Death, taxes, and this.

This aged like fine wine. The Democratic party has aged like fine milk.

I made a Seinfeld meme, and the literal first comment was someone posting your old tweet!

Goddammit

So let’s just say the best possible outcome is that the Senate gives the Dems their vote on ACA but it either fails or Johnson ignores it. Come January when the next shutdown happens will the Dems have more leverage because they can say “See. The Reps were liars?”
-
💯

#3 Then wish Republicans want something they want.

My grandfather used to say the only difference between the parties is one is in and the other is trying to get in.

@schumer.senate.gov This is you, all day every day.

Isn't this a @shaunvids.bsky.social quote?
-
The mistake is in believing the Democrats actually exist to solve the problems of voters. They don't. They're controlled opposition. They exist to serve the owner class.
-
It turns my stomach how true this is. The Dems need to grow a collective spine
-
Isn’t that how we ended up with the ACA? A Heritage Foundation solution first implemented in Massachusetts by Mitt Romney. 😕

It was an old joke already in 2021 😭

We can call 'em Cuomo Dems now. The rot began by Regan and Clinton now exposed to all.

Plus maybe a retirement bonus like unlimited ticket to Disneyworld or something.

Chuck Schumer is literally the worst leadership the Democrats have ever fielded.
