If Dems were good at politics and played a ruthless game they'd run this Signal debacle for 2 years. This is what Republicans would do and this is actually a real threat and problem.

But they’re not and i’d rather tune in to the good things they’re doing. But they’re not doing much while suffering amnesia. Bernie against Hillary in 2016 felt like he was winning deep into the primary. Biden was last then suddenly TINA to Trump. They don’t need to be ruthless just more honest.
