seems to me that those democrats inclined not to fight perceive themselves as living through a somewhat ordinary cycle of presidential overreach and backlash and not something much more significant and dangerous

Do stranded dolphins have Alzheimer's disease?
One of the most heartbreaking occurrences for nature lovers is to discover a beached marine mammal such as a dolphin or whale. If the animal is still alive, marine biologists assisted by citizen volunteers try to protect the beached marine mammal from sun exposure and skin desiccation by pouring buckets of sea water on them and sometimes covering them with wet blankets. Other volunteers try to find ways to help the animal return to their native ocean habitat when the tide rises.

Senate Dems, do not cave. Ensuring healthcare premiums don’t surge is an 80-20 issue. They want to gut the ACA because their disdain for Obama far outweighs their concern for anyone’s health.

Yes, this country *definitely* needs an upper age limit on who’s governing!
But "Sleepy Joe" Biden...right? I feel that there should be a hard cap age limit of POTUS, VP, Congress, SCOTUS, and the cabinet.
