The two traditional American political parties have been replaced with a Schmittian Liberal Party (formerly Democrat) that's great at giving speeches and an equally Schmittian Democratic Party (formerly Republican) that glories in the deciding things. Neither are good at listening.

Thank you, Senator Booker! We need more Democrats prepared to fight for us. Democracy is at risk. Furthermore, MAGA is a cult. Therefore, Republicans who continue to support Trump are complicit and collaborators in this harsh nightmare of dictatorship.

This is exactly what Democrats need to be doing. Say out loud that Trump’s policies are illegal, immoral, and injurious. This is not a normal administration and traditional politics aren’t enough. Make a huge freaking show of it. Make him own the consequences of his actions. Fight back.
