They better vote in lock-step against Trump's destructive agenda. No reaching-across-the aisle bullshit. Absolutely NO compromising.

If Hakeem Jeffries attempts to appease Republicans and help Trump force his toxic agenda on us, then Democrats in the House should revolt against him.

Now we're going to find out for sure if we live in an oligarchy that controls both Republicans and Democrats.

Democrats had better not make nice with fascism or the Democratic Party will be completely finished.
