  • The last few times the Democrats held a majority in both houses, they rolled over for Republicans who were absolutely relentless in their attacks.

    When Republicans held both houses, Democrats just silently let them get away with whatever, instead of going on the offensive the way they should.

    Attack. Legislation isn’t going to happen. Investigate. Obstruct. Be so offensive that simply existing in Washington becomes unpalatable for Republicans.

    Instead what they’ll do is send through the most milquetoast of progressive legislation, watch it get vetoed and when it comes to a point where it could actually happen, they’ll forget the ever brought it up in the first place. Like they do every time.
