"Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer are architects of the crisis that allowed Trump's fascism to arise and succeed," argued one progressive organizer. "They have zero credibility to be leading the fights we face today."

Summary

House Democrats are frustrated with progressive groups like MoveOn and Indivisible, which are pressuring them to oppose the Trump administration more aggressively.

In a closed-door meeting, lawmakers complained about grassroots activists driving constituent calls demanding obstructionist tactics.

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer defended the party’s strategy, saying, “We are picking the most important fights and lying down on the train tracks on those fights.”

However, a CBS News/YouGov poll shows 65% of Democratic voters want all-out opposition to Trump’s agenda.

    There the fucking same… The whole thing is just an illusion of choice to divide people and cause chaos so everything can stay the same…

    And now the crazy conspiracy Trump admitted to stealing the election saying he didn’t need the votes… Elon used his newly paid platform to push the trump agenda because he was going to jail if Trump didn’t win… The whole thing was rigged…

    The only person who could have done something refused and let it happen even if she was wrong Trump would have done exactly the same thing…
