Schumer & Jefferies already caving on "No Masks"

[EarlG]

43. Thanks

There have been a ton of really strong and positive political messages coming out of many Dems lately, but there have been times I’ve found myself cringing at leadership. To me it’s usually not the content of their message, but the lack of fire in the political performance, which is so vital to selling the message. This masks thing probably wouldn’t have been an issue if they’d given a barnstorming performance and wowed everybody with their passion — which unfortunately is how politicians have to behave these days if they want to get attention. Otherwise they leave a vacuum that other people can fill with negative attention (Huff Post).

The public is clearly with us, and Dems generally are putting up a fight — especially given the unreal circumstances — but I won’t deny that it can be frustrating to see leadership failing to close the deal.
