Napoleon took over France legally and without any bloodshed in 1799, becoming powerful enough to control most of Europe and kidnap two popes, breaking traditions of monarchy and religious rule that had reigned for centuries and crowning himself Emperor.

16 years later he was exiled and powerless.

I don’t think it works like that. Even an average voting Democrat isn’t going to differentiate between the DSCC and the DNC. They can’t really blame people for confusion over multiplication of leadership, especially when that leadership is fractured on this issue.

I agree w/ your principle.

I hear you, man, but it just feels like more Dems not rowing in the same direction (and not listening to people.)
