To all of the people here saying Democrats won't use this, I agree. However, we should push them to use it, and we should spread awareness of it. Anytime a Democrat says "what can we do? we're in the minority!" someone should answer with this. We should shame them into using this; we should insist that they use this.
Oh, they'll start using it. As soon as they get a majority and have progressive legislation that they ran on to block.
The only hope currently (within the governmental realm) is to

Every time they say this, we should bring up every time Republicans were in their position and slung shit around until they got their way. They really need to squirm every time they claim they're powerless. Might be tough though since they show no capacity for shame
