It sure looks that way, at least. Democrats should start coming up with a plan.

I like how the article ledes with a statement suggesting it's a problem for the Dems to solve. It's not blaming them, the same way we say "the solution will come from Dave" doesn't blame Dave ... but kinda does.

I like how the Dems are supposed to swoop in ... somehow ... and just save the day, despite having absolutely no power to do so. Can we confirm we're gonna have elections and one day the Dems may be on a position to influence policy? Can we get that settled, and maybe also decide women are again equals, and maybe a girl marrying a girl also isn't a sin, and that honest criticism isnt too much for frail orange egos?

Can we do that before working on (checks notes) the apparent dem responsibility to fix a pricing issue caused by a greedy CEO's people?
