   Glad to see Democrats (and a random Republican or two) expressing outrage after Trump's thugs manhandled one of their colleagues.

   This is an improvement from the Democrats' standard "deeply concerned" response to Trump's fascism.

   Are the Dems planning to, you know, DO anything about it?

     @dangillmor now Dan, let's not be too hasty here. To demand consequences would do irreparable damage to the tradition of collegiality and imperil their ability to pass any legislation!

     But if you donate just $5, $20, or $250 per month then they can draft a sternly worded letter to back up their empty words!

     (Nope, you still didn't read it with enough sarcasm, I assure you.)

     @dangillmor I hope they hold up some very small signs.
