Democratic Internal Debates Needed, BUT Not Now

The bashing each other over the "how to...how much" on specific issues is counter productive, and not needed at this point.
Right now, Dem leaders need to turn that energy toward attacking republicans. There is no reason for the continued silence. Dem leaders can, and should, respond to the daily horrific dismantling of programs that directly help or protect Americans, the environment, etc. without arguing among ourselves. We need to respond to the criminal acts against our country, and our democracy every day.
WHAT THE HELL IS THEIR TO DEBATE? The nightmarish attacks against our country by the Trump Administration, and congressional republicans, gives ALL democrats, and independents, ample material to speak out.
Ultra left, middle of the road, and conservative Democrats need to STOP attacking each other. Take turns going after republicans. Every time Trump's face appears on the news, so should a democratic leader calling out their lies, or comments. Call a lie,a lie! We are beyond niceties with republicans. Call Trump Little Donnie...egg him on. Tell him he is too chicken to testify in front of Mueller. There are 101 ways to get under his skin, to derail his message.

This is just my opinion. You can disagree with it, add to it, or what ever......just be respectful. Arguing, and back biting among ourselves plays right into their hands.
