If I were Democratic leaders in Congress, I’d set up a table in front of the White House and just sit there all day — with a sign above that says “Ready To Negotiate” …. And just constantly create social media posts/videos while Trump & GOP don’t show and continue to DO NOTHING

And hope the Democratic Party is taking notes. Voters want principled leaders who understand their lives and offer bold solutions to their problems. Not corporate billionaire-backed mushy centrist BS.

Last I checked, even when Republicans weren’t just trying to ask legitimate questions but unproductively heckling Biden and his administration, no one threw them to the floor and handcuffed them.

Schumer doesn’t seem to understand that when the fascists are inside our government jackbooting our democracy, you stand outside holding hands with your allies — protesting and trying everything possible to stop the fascists.
What you do NOT do is offer to help tie the fascists’ laces.
