Do the Dims have more than sheer outrage at Trump to offer? So far, after the last two years the answer seems to be no. In the end people will look at their wallet and decide if they are better off. Judging from how certain demographics are reacting it may be that many are coming to the conclusion that the Dims do not have anything to offer.
