In reply to the discussion: If you're flaming Democrats today instead of Trump and republicans, you're doing opposition politics wrong [View all]kwolf68
(8,113 posts)34. I will say
I want for more, but there are Dems speaking out and for that I applaud them. Others may just be sorting things out, get past tonight and then go full bore. If Dems play their hand too much, Dump may use it tonight.
