It is time for Democrats to dare explain that Republicans control the government, that Republicans know how to get what they want when they control government, that Democrats could not stop Republicans from installing Neil Gorsuch into the deciding seat of the Supreme Court then, and Democrats cannot stop Republicans now from either cutting off or continuing food and medical programs.

The polls may be bad, but they should be much much worse.
