They'll be about as useful as Schumer.
If you intend to resist Trump's misrule, don't put your hopes in the Democratic Party. They're not there to deliver change, they're there to prevent progressives from holding power.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

This is why even your base doesn't respect you, Dem leaders. Not that they actually give a shit.
They'll just get overruled by the corrupt Supreme Court.
I don't trust a damn thing Chummy Chuck has to say about anything.
Too bad Biden wasn't a bulwark against trump.
he's actively helping them now as exemplified by the escalations in isreal and ukraine along with the anti-transgender bill.
Chuck Schumer should shut the fuck up because he’s part of the leadership that got us here in the first place
Too bad nary a one was on the high court which can nullify any lower court’s decision they don’t like.
Bullshit. That’s why these clowns are always judge shopping to get around the politicized judiciary that would stop their plans.
They have a judicial highway to a captured SCOTUS. Not a single other judge in the country matters in regards to rulings about government power. The Democrats had years to fix it and instead they gave the corporations more welfare.
The best we'll see is some delay until the appeal gets to the Supremes and Alito channels the voices of dead Founders to deliver a conclusion exactly the same as what the Heritage Foundation wants.
I can't even find it in myself to make a sarcastic joke about Alito channeling the founding fathers for the heritage foundation. It's just... Ugh.
Dems have been so effective, I see no possible way this could fail
