1. Democrats typically have power controlling the Senate, the presidency, and several state governments but their influence is limited by Republican control of the House and a conservative Supreme Court.

2. Historically they often don’t push back as aggressively due b/c they represent a more ideologically diverse coalition, prioritize institutional norms and bipartisanship, face a less unified media ecosystem, tend to focus on policy over confrontation, and worry about alienating moderate voters.

That's a lot of excuses to just "nothing, they'll do nothing."
