    They’re fighting Trump though! I’ve peeked a couple of times at the Democrat subreddit and it’s always “some democrat saying some MEAN one-liner towards Trump during some hearing! #resist”.

    50 more of those one-liners and Trump will feel soooo bad and quit being a president, which will fix literally everything (great man theory)!

      Rhetoric is important though. The tools that a politician has are their rhetoric and their votes, and Republicans aren’t going to give them the chance to do much with those votes.

      One liners are exactly what won the government for the Republicans, that and weak-ass Democrats. I’m thrilled that Democrats seemed to have learned the value of one liners, but their rhetoric is still weak. That’s the problem.
