Other than the 8 cavers & then Spanberger, almost every major Dem centrist/moderate voted No and/or has ripped the deal,

3. This pushback is really NOT good IMHO

This circular firing squad of elected Democrats attacking other elected Democrats, and Dem leadership, does little but make a bad situation worse IMHO. If Dems were GOING to cave like this, then everyone should have been onboard to say, in unison, something along the lines of "it was a necessary evil because Trump was refusing to fund food stamps and people were going to starve to death" type of thing.

This is a big reason why the GQP wins despite their shit policies. They stick together and plan their messaging. This reaction by all these Democrats may make some of us feel better, like "oh hey, we're not wrong in being angry, look lots of our leaders agree!" but in reality? The Dems in Disarray storyline outlined here is nothing to celebrate. There is little to be gained by these people speaking out against the decision that was made.

I'm not talking about us DU'ers here, to be clear. It's our JOB to do what we're doing today
