This piece really confirmed my main thought about today: the Dems shouldn’t have attended this sick joke of a ceremony. I get that Biden & Kamala couldn’t avoid it—although Trump himself didn’t go in 2020!— but the rest of them should’ve skipped it

It bothered me to see Obama chatting and joking with Trump at Carter's funeral.

January 6th should have been enough for all the former presidents and V.P.s to skip it.

And not hob-nob with the super-billionaires hoping for a donation for their next campaign?

A spectrum of scum.

AOC is a rock god for her response to the question: “I don’t celebrate rapists”

AOC needs to primary Chuck Schumer as part of a part renewal push.

USA elected a rapist to the highest office. Shame.

90+% of Dems in power are worthless.

Yes! And honestly, the Welcome Home quip was not ok 🦨💨

this seems obvious

The Dems aren't a resistance party much less an opposition party. What they are is the out-of-power party

Only thing I learned today is that Karen Pence has a spine.

The Dems as a whole are not serious about fighting this steamroller they have had 2 1/2 months to prepare for this day and what do they do? 99-0 vote for Rubio.

Either they are going to make a stand or they aren’t.

So far 🤷🏻‍♂️

Why didn’t Biden order the Mar A Lago report to be released ?

Excellent, yet so depressing.
