2. Jason Crow nailed it yesterday

Thursday

when he said on live TV that Democrats aren't divided between progressives and moderates, he said they are divided between those who want to fight now, those who have courage and those who want to wait Krasnov out.

I posted this yesterday and got one comment that I should name Democrats who want to wait, I refrained from naming names but I changed my mind.

Back in March when Democrats were set to take a stand and not pass the CR until they got protections for our social safety net, Chuck Schumer kneecapped them and led a minority to pass the CR which opened the door for Magats to pass the Big Ugly Death Bill.
Schumer then went on Chris Hayes and gave his reason why. Schumer flat out said on live TV that Krasnov will destroy the country and then Democrats will win the next election. That's not me saying this, Schumer said it. There are many Democrats in Schumer's camp whose strategy is to wait and beat them at the ballot box. I get 12 or more texts a day to donate money, when the time comes I will donate to my Democratic nominees, right now I am donating to Indivisible.
