The Democratic minority leader was asked about opposition to his leadership from new members and said the “issue is not me. I’ll be re-elected as majority leader. The issue is focusing on the American people and what they want.”

It’s an interesting idea but unfortunately is just a path to having the same fascists rebrand over the next two years and pick back where they left off, gaining momentum to win in 2028.
Jeffries and Schumer-style politics is to turn invisible and wait, make speeches that are academic and milquetoast and that people forget before each sentence is even over. All that’ll do is let everyone forget that every single GOP lawmaker was actively destroying the country, and leave it to Fox News to rewrite blame to the “do nothing” Democratic Congress.
The Democrats need to constantly fight the next two years even when they won’t win. They need to not pull any punches and send bill after bill to be vetoed, impeach even where it’ll fail, defund and block every unconstitutional Executive Order and take it to the Supreme Court if needed, and remind everyone who the problem is, force the GOP to take positions. People can’t be let to forget.
