I'm not really clear on how this will matter within two month's time, anyway. The Senate that's in power today isn't the same that will be in place when Trump is inaugurated, so how does this vote actually matter in the first place?
I mean, better for both sides to do it than just one; do you think Soros or Winfry or Zuckerberg cared about people being unhappy about them meddling? Just sitting back and taking it is how we got in this mess in the first place. If Musk is going to do it to, but for Trump, then maybe people will get off their asses and actually come up with a law to prevent this kind of thing altogether. As it stands, Trump already said that he'd be using the Dem's tactics against them. If it's legal for them to do it, then do it right back.
That was on the cusp, anyway - although, granted, that was more fan-driven than anything that Nintendo ever actually suggested. See Bowsette - although "she" isn't actually canon, fans ran with a "Princess" powerup that was designed to allow Toadette to temporarily transform into a faux-Peach. That powerup was given to Bowser to create "Bowsette", a clone of Peach, but with Bowser's horns, shell, and tail. Now, it's not uncommon to see a certain sect of fans suggest that Mario would be saving trans-Bowser from Peach, instead.
I’m pretty sure it was pretty obvious to the cartel that Trump wouldn’t be as placid and accommodating as Biden. Just the fact that he would be shutting down the border would be enough to motivate them. This comment might as well have been to add a can of gasoline to a burning oil field.
Yes, and?
Trump has already made his decision. Does anyone think that Trump doesn't know Vance's history, and that he hasn't extensively vetted his choices? Or, do you perhaps think that you've had more opportunity to gain an insight into Vance than Trump has?
What exactly are you trying to suggest?
It also exposed a lot of things that had been hidden from sight before, ranging from the way the general population will react to a perceived emergency, to the way people will react to anyone who doesn't conform to the narrative, to the multi-layered justice and enforcement system. A lot of people at least started to wake up, even if bleary-eyed and confused.
It wasn't all for nothing, but it was a series of lessons that came with a high cost.
I don't think he's going to like where the probe that he's brought upon himself is going to go...
