Why are all of the commenters on Morning Joe talking about the Senate Democrats "laying down"

[Atticus]

instead of all-out fighting the Kavanaugh nomination?

Don't some of them read DU?

Don't they know Democrats are doing all that is possible for the minority to do?

[Ilsa]

1. I think the suggestion of releasing the docs on the internet

might have been a good plan.

[shanny]

2. Well played.

[SamKnause]

3. Hold a press conference.

Release the documents online.

Don't show up to the hearing.

Let the people see the Trump parties underhanded tactics.

Don't just lie down, or get stream rolled.

They think Dianne Feinstein is behind this this milk toast approach.

Fight.

[kentuck]

4. The Democrats are not in the minority today because they stood so strongly...

...against the Republicans actions.

[Raster]

6. !!!

[Gore1FL]

21. +1

Exactly.

[3Hotdogs]

5. The confirmation was over before it began.

[betsuni]

7. "Why didn't Democrats stop ______ ?"

[ananda]

8. Because they are ???

We want to see some serious fight in the Dems!

[NCTraveler]

9. Because the for profit media benefits from horse races.

Just like they normalized Trump, get ready for them to level the paying field by trashing Democrats. It's about to happen. Bigly.

Some people will never be able to grasp the medias ability to keep both parties strong, or weak, depending on the times.

10. Because they are, it's out Bernie's playbook don't offend the tRumpers

I've never seen a larger group of mealy-mouth men in all my life. They would't say shit if they had a mouth full!

[smirkymonkey]

18. +1000

This. I am pretty damn tired of how weak and ineffective they have been behaving. I expect more from them.

[sinkingfeeling]

11. So glad so many DUers listen to TV talking heads and then want them

to lead the Democratic Party. Especially those who supported IQ45 in 2016.

[Atticus]

12. Who at DU supported "IQ45" in 2016?

Who wants talking heads to lead our party?

[sinkingfeeling]

17. Referring to 'Morning Joe'.

[Atticus]

19. K. nt

[ehrnst]

13. We all know how unrefutable Morning Joe is on political analysis.

Why would we listen to anyone else, most especially Democratic leaders?

[Atticus]

14. That's pathetic. nt

[ehrnst]

15. If you're talking about the OP, I agree. (nt)

[Hortensis]

16. +100. Atticus knows Joe is a CONSERVATIVE activist show.

He must know all the regular commentators push the show's conservative themes. Because all intelligent viewers do.

Couldn't miss. Joe and his panel diss Dems every single day without fail, with the very same goals and methods Russia uses -- which, btw, the Mueller quote below summarizes.

Atticus did bring us a nice typical example, which those who don't watch can examine to understand Morning Joe's motive and method.

[treestar]

20. They are fluffing up the division

They know a minority can't overcome minority status by "fighting."
