We already know that Trump’s realpolitik use of the term is to impugn any political initiative that aids working people.

And where are statements by Herrs. Trump, Vance, Patel, Miller, and the rest of the Reichstag gang?

Carville tells them to roll over and play dead– even though that’s what they’ve already been doing for decades.

Axelrod tells them not to swing at every pitch–we might ask if there was a single pitch hat he ever advised Obama to swing at? And when Democrats like Rep. Green fight fire with fire, Axelrod say it’s “despicable.”

Interviewed by Daily Kos, Democratic House candidate Saikat Chakrabart says “I think what we’ve got is a Democratic establishment and a leadership right now that finds security in doing as little as possible. . .Their approach to Trump has been, ‘Let’s do as little as possible and win off the backlash.’”

The corporate media’s attempts to ignore what is visible to every America will be its ultimate downfall.

This is another example of how muddled the Democrats message is: they play defensive, buy into the right wing’s framing myth-making and hysterical coercion, think that unity should come before decency.

AOC & 57 other House Dems retained their integrity, remind us of the reality of who Kirk was, someone “Who, after the violent attack on Paul Pelosi, claimed that ‘some amazing patriot’ should bail out his brutal assailant, and accused Jews of controlling ‘not just the colleges, it’s the nonprofits, the movies, it’s Hollywood, it’s all of it.””

Trump’s latest defacement of the presidency.
