The Dems look to me, very much like an audience stooge helping to sell the illusion on the stage.
There's the expectation they're not in cahoots with the comically villainous lot, but somehow they're always standing around with their thumb jammed up their arse, looking the other way, when an opportunity to constrain the insanity presents itself.
For instance, blatant and extended shenanigans to heavily bias the SCOTUS are answered with... crickets. Could've stacked it with folks who'd start repairing the damage, but didn't because insert reason here.

I don't think I am hopeful really. There don't seem to be any positive outcomes. Trump seems to have broken the core political system in a country that had become increasingly divided and partisan. We saw something similar here with Johnson but we seem to have clawed our way back towards sense in government, albeit with an emboldened far-right.
