OK, it's all hands on deck, but what's likely to happen when the danger is past, or the country is at least pulled back from the latest brink? The same old same-olds (including those "moderates") will step back in, say, "Thanks for bailing us out," and resume their old BS. Citizens United and the current Supreme Court aren't going anywhere. I do hope that enough Democrats are shocked into action by the abysmal non-response of Schumer and so much of the congressional leadership. Either they didn't recognize what was happening or they had no idea what to do about it -- or, more likely, both.
Do we finally get that the biggest threats to "our democracy" are coming from where they've always come from: the right?
