What is tone deaf about this?

instead of pushing for a right to repair for all US citizens, including military, they instead opt for right to repair for military only.
this sends the message that corporate interests are far more valuable to political leaders than the needs of their constituency.
Warren looks great on paper, but given the opportunity she fails to deliver to the American public what is needed. she’s no different than Joe Biden, Al Gore, Bill Clinton, Nancy Pelosi, etc. At the end of the day they serve their corporate masters and not the public.
if they did serve the public this wouldn’t even be news because everyone would have had the right to repair decades ago.

Got it. Since what they did wasn’t 100% perfect and a fix to everything, they are tone deaf and terrible politicians. It’s a really good thing what they did, but since it doesn’t help you personally, then it is a terrible thing. They recognized something that needed fixing that will save billions of taxpayer dollars and hurts large corporations, but since they didn’t fix the thing that impacts you then it is bad.
Also, this is the OPPOSITE of sending the message that corporate interests are more valuable. This is saying that corporations that are making billions off taxpayer funded contracts will no longer be able to bilk us (as much).
Yes, they should absolutely go after the right to repair for everyone, but maybe (and I’m just spitballing here) Warren knows that she couldn’t get the Republican majority to vote yes on a full package and went for the win she could get instead of blocking something that does do good. You do realize, right, that the Democrats do not have a majority anywhere in the federal government?

maybe instead of trying to work with the fascist ideological cult, previously known as the Republican party, her and her fellow democrats should instead be focused on making it as difficult as possible for the current fascist regime to function?
maybe if they had a spine to stand up for what is best for the country we might not be facing the realistic threat of concentration camps in America.
they were elected to serve and protect American interests. tell me, how does working with the “obvious elephant” in the room serve and protect American interests?
