All those stupid fools had to do is maintain enough self control to publicly act with a bit of decorum. A little bit of co-operation with DJT would have yielded both credit and victories for them.
Their base won't allow them to cooperate with Trump. They went overboard during the election demonizing him, and now they can't undo the damage and are stuck with crazy zombie voters who you think that any cooperation with Trump is literal Nazi collaboration.
Theyve put themselves in a dead-end. Its a position where even if game theory suggested working with Trump they cant. Now they're fighting but have nowhere to go. The people in charge have realized that the "Trump is evil" position they allowed Hillary to create doomed them.
The only way to come back from that is to wait for Trump to leave office.
I thought they would do exactly that after the 2016 loss to Trump. They acted half retarded, but instead of reigning it in they doubled down and went full retard. It’s almost like they have no choice and have been paid to do what they are doing. But that’s crazy talk, isn’t it? There couldn’t possibly be a billionaire behind the scenes calling the shots on the Democrat side, could there?
Hell, with the media on their side, they probably could have gotten away with still not even working with him, so long as they smiled for the cameras and just pretended everything was fine, and just refrained from being sociopaths on camera.
It's better for everyone that it worked out the way it did. This way, they've been exposed and even people who aren't that in to politics or who are woefully under-informed have been able to see what's going on. The party is self destructing, and imo, it needs to. It needs to just cease to exist and something decent can (hopefully) be built to replace it.

It's almost funny.

16 more years!
Cooperation is good. But after they ran Hillary they permanently ran me away from their side. Never demonrat again.
