Is the Democratic party going to be fully committed to opposing Trump, claiming that he is the greatest threat to American Democracy in history, or is it going to focus most of its attention on helping the party prominents feather their nests, hold on to their seats and stay out of the more risky line of fire as the elections approach?

In light of how some elected members of the party have been responding to everything that's happening, I think this is a legitimate question that deserves and answer.

I'm a lifelong Democrat, the son of a labor union member who grew up in a working class household. I've always been registered to vote, and I've always voted, including in local elections at the city and county level. In all of the time I've been eligible to vote, I've never missed an election if I could help it, including voting absentee and by mail when circumstances dictated it. I've also always been a contributor. I'm not wealthy, by any means, but I can give candidates a little bit of a boost with a small contribution to their campaign, and a regular gift to the DNC

I've dropped the DNC gift, as a practical matter, and because I no longer see the value of doing so. I'm open to revisiting the possibility but I need to see something a whole lot different than what I see now. And a lot more bold and aggressive when it comes to opposing Trump. That contribution now goes to Leaders We Deserve which is where I think it will do the most good for the Democratic party in electing the best candidates who aren't afraid to stand up and be Trump opposition.

Keep a close eye on the Democrats in Congress, because at a time like this, when a tiny GOP majority is on its back heels trying to keep up its agenda and Democrats have more power than they want you to know that they do, their votes will tell you how sincere their lips are being when it comes to Trump opposition. They're not getting my vote unless they're 100% anti-MAGA.
