Imagine a Democratic senator who was smart enough to just say: "We can't predict the future, but we're gonna fight like hell and the American people are on our side."

That's it! That's all you have to say @SenatorDurbin!

This is so demobilizing and stupid. https://twitter.com/igorbobic/status/1310219556489695232
Maybe Durbin is right, maybe he's wrong. Just because process nerds can see 7 moves ahead on the chess board doesn't mean that's reality and it certainly doesn't mean you have to predict this shit in public like a pundit.
The more Democrats say shit like this, the more they demobilize their own base. They also risk splitting it and getting targeted by protests from their left—which, frankly, they will deserve if they can't put on a united front.
Donald Trump is an authoritarian menace and Mitch McConnell is enabling him, unfortunately according to this esoteric rule book that no one outside a Senate office building will ever understand, them's the knocks! Sorry fam, remember to vooooooote.

Lol, so boned
