3. Henceforth every ICE atrocity can be laid at the feet of Democrats

They fund it. They own it.

A certain group loves to scold DUers for questioning Democratic strategy or for voicing doubt about how Dems are handling Trump.

"What do you expect them to do?" ask the scolds. "They're the minority."

Well, for starters, they could vote "No" on every piece of pro-Trump legislation that comes up.

Dems don't want to look weak on law-enforcement? Well great; now they look strongly pro-Gestapo.

History will not be kind, nor should it be.
