Ed Martin: "What this pardon does is help rescue the people who were hunted. The Biden administration hunted the alternate electors who were participating in our constitutional process in 2020 ... they were Trump supporters who believed in the Constitution."

They had Trump and GOP playing defense. Republicans were being blamed for shutdown. Dems soundly trounced the GOP on election night. All the momentum was on their side but they gave up their leverage. And even as Trump was getting loudly serenaded by boos at an NFL game, Dems folded.
"In losing, Dems have said: we will relinquish future opportunities to use deadlines to bend Trump to our will. That is a posture of weakness that voters will pick up on."
On the pod, @brianbeutler.bsky.social has good ideas for Ds to salvage something from shutdown:

"Donald Trump is willing to cancel flights at Thanksgiving and starve American citizens in order to deprive people of affordable health insurance" was a winning message for the Democrats. The polls and Tuesday's elections proved it. But they flinched, behaving as though winning was losing.

The coordinated nature of this—none are facing voters in 2026—means that either Schumer approved it or failed in his job as Senate Majority Leader to stop it.
Dems voting "no" get zero credit until they demand a change in leadership. Schumer out as Leader, Durbin out as Whip.

Dems backed Trump into a corner where he’s advocating for starving Americans and hemorrhaging support. If they vote to let him off the hook in exchange for nothing it’s a cataclysmic failure. I know people are in pain but insulating Republicans from political consequences is not the answer.
