Democrats need to grow a spine. I am so sick and tired of the mamby pansy Dems. Republicans as repulsive as they are stay united and are always on message attacking. I cannot watch Sunday shows anymore because the Rebugs always show up and outnumber and message the Dems. Tim Russert was about the only talking head who could challenge most of these immoral, lying sociopaths. Maddow and Oberlmann could do the job but the networks are too spineless to promote them. With the exception of a few Dems like Schiff and Waters the rest are basically silent. How can the Rebugs stay on message the entire Obama presidency making up lies and promoting conspiracy theories about Hillary and Obama and we Dems just take it? It makes my stomach turn. Hit Trump where it hurts, his wallet. Play dirty. Obama not born in America? Ok how about Trump hotel health violations, roaches-tarnish his brand, make his brand unfashionable.
