    How is it possible that this is the only thing the democrats seem to care about? Yet they seem fully complacent with Trumps destruction of the US economy, democracy and international relationships?

      If you think that this is the only thing that Democrats care about then you clearly have your eyes closed.

        Well open my eyes then, show me the riots or other major actions that I apparently fail to see.

        Sure the democrats do not like whats happening, but they are too complacent to do anything about it.

          On the one hand, they have nothing left. They have been voted our of everything. Can’t really be heard or do anything then.

          On the other hand, I do indeed find the lack of uprising weird. No street protests, no government buildings being ransact, no police officers being killed, flags everywhere… oh. Like a reverse 6th of Januari.
