It's funny how this meeting included "shouting and fingerpointing", but Rubio had a complete "meltdown" in his interview. This description is accurate, but you'd think this would be described more along the lines "Trump and Zelensky murder each other's children while declaring a blood feud" in comparison.

All the Democrats should be saying this.
-
If Democrats had some sort of plan against what's happening, they would ALL be saying this, over and over, to all journalists in every news organization and podcast.
They should lead the pushback but they look like spectators.
-
... yeah, I can see it
-
They just plain don't care because they clearly think what's happening won't affect them.

Then fucking do something about it you feckless pussies. Stop with the sound bites of shit every single sane person in the United States of America already knows.

They have no power in any arm of the government which is what the Americans who bothered to vote wanted.
This is pretty much all they can do for the next two years.

And yet when the republicans were in the same minority situation, they have been able to block tons of major government functions, judicial appointments, and laws being passed. When the dems were in power they needed right wing compromises somehow because "otherwise the republicans would block it".
The past 40 years have literally been lesson after lesson on how to completely make the machine grind to a halt when you have an opposition party. They choose to take not one single lesson from it and not lift a single finger when it matters.

"Slammed"
"Pounded"
"Owned"
etc..
This is the consequence of mistaking the theater of the act for an act of theater. Appearances matter, narratives matter: but do not mistake them for the thing they represent. A flourish is necessary, but not the same as the strike itself.

you seem like a passionate ideas man
what should they do?

They can follow the republican playbook. They can disrupt, delay, ignore calls to quorum, filibuster, generally shit-talk the sitting government, and crucify fellow democrats that capitulate on every platform and in every instance. They will still lose but it would be a damn sight better than watching this group of corporate dick-sucks flounder around like they are just lost.
Thank Jebus for AOC and that other dude whose name escapes me at the moment but mostly the one-man army that has been Bernie Sanders since the election. You should see every single one, especially those ranking democrats, in the media every day just flat out mother fucking this administration and the Republicans just as the Republicans did for the last 4 years to Biden. Instead, we get crickets or sound bites about how the last election wasn't the American people rebuking the democratic party because that's what we need right now Nancy, old people telling us what we just saw wasn't what actually happened.
As long as they have a pulse there should be a fight, the time for decorum is long past.

The follow-up question any competent journalist should as every politician is “And therefore you will do what?”
-
They're all terrified of losing access. Especially now, after the AP got booted from the press pool.

Where's the lie though?
