“I think it’s going to require a little bit less navel-gazing and a little less whining and being in fetal positions. And it’s going to require Democrats to just toughen up,” Obama said at the fundraiser

To me, it never felt like Obama was truly committed. Also why promise it if you don’t know if you can actually do it or is contingent on factors outside your control?
I remember watching him walk into that screaming stadium of people after his election, looking like a rock star. I didn’t buy it at all. I was absolutely certain that none of the “Hope & Change” he was espousing was ever going to happen, and we’d have an administration not much different from Clinton or Bush.
And I was right. The Dems long-standing strategy of appeasement has never worked, and now MAGA Nazis count on it when creating their strategies. They know that no matter how bad they behave - insurrections, stealing classified documents, taking bribes, insider trading, breath-taking corruption, rape, genocide, cover-ups, hush money payments, sentencing sick people to suffering and death, child molesting, etc., etc. - the Dems will do absolutely NOTHING, and even if they did, the MAGA Nazis would either block it or ignore it. So they get away with the most egregious behavior and crime with impunity.
