House Democratic lawmakers reportedly used a closed-door meeting earlier this week to vent their frustrations with progressive advocacy groups that have been driving constituent calls and pressuring the party to act like a genuine opposition force in the face of the Trump administration’s authoritarian assault on federal agencies and key programs.

    I just got to wonder if the people who constantly think this are just angry that Trump got a loyal unquestioning fanbase, and want a piece of the media-manipulated voter base for themselves

    Yes, because they think that’s how he won since they ignore everything Trump and downtrodden people say on the premise that they are dumb and valid to be ignored.

    There isn’t a recognition of changing to meet people suffering to show empathy but a thought that if they just had enough power first they could fix whatever is really wrong cause it must be something other than what people are complaining about.

    They want the power without purpose which isn’t a winning strategy compared to explaining what you intend to do with power for people who feel powerless.
