do you reckon congress republicans get mad when they learn a sidewalk incline or the ticking of walk/stop signals is for the benefit of disabled people

Like it might be a handy line to draw because it might illustrate how much it's a matter of principle. If the US acts like the government is supposed to take care of someone, expectations start changing

At least that's how i see it. I think republican politicians would run 100 miles to avoid a single step for someone else's benefit

so uh, i just checked the news for today after writing that

@Felthry oh there was breaking news that the speaker of the house got ousted because he was willing to compromise with democrats to avoid a government shutdown
