If the Democrats are going to survive this they will have to stop treating the Republicans as if they are playing by the same rules. The Republicans throughout the rule book after Barack Obama became President. This is point continues to escape everyone that is a pundit and everyone that has an opinion. The Republicans no longer care about the rule of law, hence they ran a person that stole classified documents, is an adjudicated rapist, and convicted felon.
Look at the nominees of the convicted felon, many are either ex cons or people with shady backgrounds. It is obvious that some Americans could care less about that, because they voted for him and his party to run this country in the ground.
The Republicans no longer care about the Constitution, the Supreme Court gave the convicted felon absolute immunity for the crimes he has and will commit in the future. The insurrection to them was an outing at the park where some bad actors caused a little havoc, boys will be boys.
Republicans lie, cheat, and steal to maintain power and control, now that they have it and a sycopath in the White House who knows what will happen over the next four years and beyond. My saving grace is that I am on the last end of life that may not allow me to see all the damage that will be done.
Democrats must fight, I am a lifelong Democrat and will never leave the party, however, I and frustrated that they are so weak, they just voted to keep Schumer and Durbin in the leadership positions of the party again. They are the main reason for this as they do not fight like the Republicans fight. They can't keep their caucus together to pass any meaningful legislation especially the votings rights acts. You will never see the Republicans break rank on any meaningful legislation that they want to pass.
Until the Democrats get some balls and fight for their base like the Republicans do for theirs, they will continue to lose elections to the morbidly destructive party called the Republican Party. They must fight fire with fire, no more of this nice guy crap, they don't have to cheat, lie and steal, however, they have to call the Republicans out when they do it and hold them accountable by broadcasting this to the country.
How do you not remind the country of the disastrous Covid pandemic, advertisements should have flooded the airwaves, or that he is a convicted criminal that stole classified documents, or all of the other nasty things he and many Republicans do and stand for. Again I will continue to vote for the Democrats, because they are the only ones that get things done for the people, but I am like the African American women, as they are tired of holding up a party that does noting but capitulate to the opposition.
