I am aware of their lack of majority and inability to filibuster a reconciliation bill. While these actions seem useful, it is merely born of desperation. Regardless, these are at least steps that can be taken to minimize the massive oncoming harm.
There is a reason behind this lack of majority though: they’ve failed to energize voters, they’ve let the cult of personality Trump win over reason. They’ve lost seats because of a lack of attention, and complacency. If they hadn’t, we’d be in a very different situation right now.
The few nominees that had a chance to keep Democrats in control of vital offices, were either sidelined or actively fought against, Zohran Kwame Mamdani is a recent example of a candidate for a Mayoral position that the DNC pit a controversial sex pest Andrew Cuomo against…Even dusting off Bill Clinton to back Andrew, but at least Zohran is still in the running, ATM. I can only hope young candidates like him can help shift the political landscape for the better in the future. If America can endure, at least.
The candidates you want aren’t backed by donors. We need to vote for the progressives that often run in primaries. Take it from a political analyst if you don’t believe me.
Stop rewarding the people who can afford to reach you in your living room. Research the candidates on your primary ballots and vote in every election.
Oh trust me, I know the reality of what is going on. This is why I vote in every election: local, state, and national because that is what really matters. Change can only happen if we participate in all the elections possible, which I have certainly done regardless of the outcome. As apathy and losing hope is going to let those corporate and ultra wealthy donor backed candidates win.

Yup. That’s exactly how they’ve taken control over the last 40 years.
Also, Dems could have abused the reconciliation process in order to pass legislation too, but didn’t.
