Low self-preservation tendencies, but lots of money, is a bad combination. They can afford to get themselves into a lot of trouble.

And once again, they will snatch Defeat from the jaws of Victory.

Dems don’t have to lie, cheat, and steal like the Republicans to win, they just have to play Hard Ball, and force the MAGA Nazis to follow the laws, established rules, and the Constitution, without exception.

Malicious Compliance is a perfectly acceptable and ethical form of resistance, and Dems should be using it at every single opportunity.

I had a job I loved, although it was owned by a complete asshole. I got a new job, at nearly double the pay. I agreed to give 2 weeks notice, even though it was going to cost me a lot of money, which I needed (this was my first good paying job, and I was broke).

Rather than understand that I was doing him a favor, my asshole boss decided to torture me for my final two weeks. I put up with it for a week, then told him I was done on Friday. I was essentially paying out of my pocket to give him 2 weeks, but I wasn’t going to pay him to abuse me, so I just left him standing there with his mouth agape.

I took the weekend off, and started my cool new new job on Monday (and it was a cool job, one of the best I’ve ever had).
