That’s exactly the problem. The Democratic leadership is stuck in a cycle of playing it safe while the GOP rewrites the rules in real-time.

Bold, aggressive action is the only way forward.

Unfortunately neither seem willing to give up power right now under some delusion that their experience is needed in this current moment when it's their experience that's the biggest hindrance in this moment.
