31. Democrats still are not with the game

Yes, some Dems have woken up but it is alarming leaders like Durbin, Pelosi. Schumer are so beholden to "customs", they would rather wait out. Durbin is so no-energy senator. I understand it is tiring. But they have signed up to be representatives and the country is burning. Where is Obama? I don't get it. It looks like Dems themselves were not believing the gravity of the situation and were so unprepared. It is improving some now. Pelosi shut down AOC. For what? AOC can speak better than anyone.
