democratic leadership is such an embarrassment, holding up signs and wearing pink, yellow / blue, or 'resist" shirts does absolutely nothing. getting literally insulted to their faces and they just sit there pretending to look mad. no true solidarity or coordination.

I know a lot of people commenting to protest the congressional speech, but if Dems and their invitees don't occupy those seats, they will be filled entirely with Republican loyalists. Optic wise, it's a stronger statement to show up fully in solidarity and make your presence known.
