The huge barrier to all sorts of important things is traitortrump and his supporters.

Getting important things done requires getting rid of trump. More of these 'fearful'/'timid'/'afraid' accusations are tiresome, self defeating, dangerous, and potentially disastrous. Yes, Prez candidates need to differentiate themselves in their campaigns, and various proponents of good things need to put many other things first.

However, the DNC is about winning. And extremely important, is holding on to those 20 red Congressional seats, which many strong proponent types here seem somewhat oblivious to.
