Meanwhile the Ds collaborate with the Rs to temporarily suspend the filibuster so they can pass a spending bill. Or they concede all leverage on empty promises that the Rs have been breaking for 30 years. Or they send their hopes and prayers and raise a fist on the steps of Congress but do abso-fucking-lutely nothing that materially changes the trajectory of the fascist wave.
