Can I ask as a serious question? What would you have them do and do you honestly think it would be effective?
I’m not disagreeing with your main point. However, I find that people are hoping that there is something magical that dems can do to (1) make news and (2) fix the issues in our electorate. I just don’t think it’s possible.

Why? Republicans and Trump especially, will light themselves on fire every hour of every day. He will do controversial shit every single day for the next 4 years. The news is polluted with information and having Dems running around with their on hair on fire screaming about democracy being threatened (which is true. Which is what Biden said for 4 years. Which is what Harris said constantly…which most people don’t believe).
I don’t have the answer. Honestly I’m lost of what to do because we did what you said and the voters said fuck off. I don’t know what will work but I feel like it needs to be different. Who fucking knows.
If you threaten people with future prosecutions that is a serious threat. If you are a career civil servant with a kid going to college that is serious. You can't just be the George McFly party taking it in the nuts for 4 years. You have to throw some punches. Bullies don't like to be hit, even if the blows are ineffective they don't like it.

Only the Justice Department can prosecute for federal crimes, and threatening people with prosecutions is in Trump's playbook, not the Democrats.
But they did exactly that for literally 8 years. It. Didn’t. Work.
What you are saying I want and makes me feel good. However, I see no evidence that it is effective.
