Also, as multiple people have pointed out, the whole analysis ignores the impact of the RW mediasphere. Democrats are *perceived* as "too liberal" because Fox keeps *saying* they're too liberal, & the mainstream goes along. Dems talk affordability; Fox says they only talk about trans people.

Rachel Maddow: "Russia is a podunk country. The idea that we work for him is so humiliating and is such an abject failure on the part of Trump in terms of his weakness. I don't know what Putin has on him, but he works for Putin and it's an embarrassment to this country"

A mayoral candidate saying maybe the city should cover the cost of bus rides gets the full socialism panic treatment before he even tries it.
A sitting president taking billions of dollars worth of shares in private companies gets “I must say, a tad unusual” after it’s been going for nearly a year.

I don’t think the Republicans plan to open the government for a while.
Trump thinks he is untouchable while Congress is out. He has no incentive to get them back to work.

One of these days, Congress MUST pass a law that compels witnesses to answer questions, and stop the petty, petulant grandstanding Pam Bondi did
It was disrespectful of America's time. Not answering questions? Who the fuck does she think she is?
She should be disbarred.
