Why are the Democrats so spineless? | Moira Donegan

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

56% : They want Trump, and the changes to our political world that his ascent has ushered in, to never have happened.
44% : They pledge resistance to the Trumpist takeover of the state, and then pledge to work with Trump on what they insist are their shared priorities.
38% : Increasingly, political commentators have compared the Democrats of 2025 to the Nazi collaborationist Vichy government in second-world-war France.
31% : The Democrats have alternated between declaring Trump a fascist and a would-be dictator, and congratulating themselves on peacefully handing over the reins of power to him; they have railed against his corruption and his subordination to the unelected South African billionaire Elon Musk, but have also made themselves available to cooperate with Musk's project to gut the federal bureaucracy and reshape it in his own interests, the initiative that has been moronically termed "Doge".
