Useless bastards.

I ask this with all sincerity. What would you have them do?

  1. Replace Schumer and Jeffries, and make it publicly known it's because of capitulation to fascism.

  2. Filibuster every fucking thing.

  3. Dredge up every scandal against every Republican, go on every podcast and every news show and put them on blast.

They are not powerless.

Oh, yes, that's general stuff I totally agree with. I was thinking too narrowly, about just this incident.

The playbook's already out there. I don't expect the Democrats to do any of it, but they should be.
