Canadians have more backbone than the Democratic party.

No. What part of the the statement "they are the minority party " do you not understand. We are dealing with a MAGA trifecta. You want "no backbone?" Take a look at what passes for the Republican party. At the rate they are going, they are going to have to be tested for oral STDs.

The Democrats are trying, but it's like the firefighters in L.A. Whenever they think they have a handle on some man made crisis, the Convict-in-Chief starts another brush fire that turns into a 5 alarm conflagration before you can say boo. There are only so many fires that can be contained at one time.

I do think it may be time for Schumer to go home and play with his grandchildren- funny how everyone was so willing to push a very fine president out the door, but no one ever suggests that for other leaders in the party.

I've wanted Schumer to retire for at least two years. When I retired, I got the heck out of the business I spent most of my life doing--I took up other crafts and goals.

Why the heck can't these old farts get themselves out of the game? One thing I learned while in my work life: no one--and I mean NO ONE--is irreplaceable. There is always someone, willing and ready if perhaps not quite as experienced, waiting to step into the space you leave behind.

Losing doesnтАЩt mean they have to have duct tape over their mouths. They can still speak to the people and raise some hell. They are failing.

They donтАЩt have duct tape over their mouths. If you saw todayтАЩs demonstration. They are raising some hell, but itтАЩs hard when the Democrats are the minority party. There are two ways of doing business, there can be screaming and yelling and carrying on - that getтАЩs everyoneтАЩs attention but itтАЩs a lot easier to shut down. Then there is the way of being quiet and getting all the machinations in line and then making the move. My money is on the second method. The MRat keeps hogging the scene and the Convict-in-Chief aids and abets in the effort.

yes. I wish the DNC Dems would take notes. Now the new Chair of the DNC want to investigate and form theories of why we lost a winnable election. JUDAS H. PRIEST, DNC--get your thumbs out of your butts and DO SOMETHING. Don't just sit there formulating this and that reason. We lost; get out there and be fekking LEADERS!!!

I agree, forget about analyzing the last election.

Focus on STOPPING TRUMP NOW!

Rally the Democrats to mass demonstrations.

Rally the opposition, THAT is how you attract ppl to the Democratic party.
