Democrats need to do more... [View all]

[Caliman73]

I have posted threads like this in the past and they usually sink like a stone. It is a pretty common theme among some of us here. Frustration that Democrats aren't "doing enough". More importantly, calls from some that "Democrats need to be more like Republicans"

When I respond to those threads, I ask questions, two questions mainly, and they are typically something like:

1. What do you mean "be like Republicans"?
2. What would that look like in practice?

So basically, I am putting this out there again. For all those who are frustrated and "fed up", and think that Biden is too soft, that Schumer is handing the keys to McConnell, and that Pelosi can't manage her caucus.

WHAT do you mean by "Be like Republicans"? What are they like, that you admire and think we should copy?

WHAT specific things should we do that they do? AND What effect would that have on the country and our democracy as it is?

Like I said, I fully expect this thread to disappear soon, because whenever I ask people to define what they mean and give some practical steps for their vision of "Democrats doing more..." or "Being like Republicans..." I rarely get any responses that would spark a discussion.
