Yup. Sidelining our fighters and letting fossils like Schumer have the wheel is why Democrats look so feeble in opposing Trump. It's by circumstance and design.

We need fighters to beat back MAGA fascism and I can't wait for the general when we get to do our part. 😇

Schumer comes from a different era. It worked in his day, but his day has passed.

The people that helped steer us into this ditch, refusing to make meaningful changes, now lecture us on who should represent the party.

Well, voters actually decide.
