    Democrats are feeling constant pressure from their base to disrupt the Trump administration, admitting to frustrated voters that they have no real leverage outside of the courts unless they win back at least one chamber of Congress

    anything they can do about that?

      Publicily advocate their base join grassroots and decentralized movements that enact direct action since the courts and political system are completely captured by fascists and time is of the essence?

      Seems like that’d be a bit more useful than what they’re doing now, which is effectively nothing.

        that’s my point they can’t do anything about impeachment, but people are shouting at the democrats like they should occupy the government or else the are nazi collaborators. the far left campaigning hard against the democrats and helping trump as always
