A lot of the democratic establishment used to have a close relationship with Trump and took his money often over the years. Then Biden even helped him get re-elected by all the lies and nonsense last year.

Things are not as they seem and the plan is clearly not for the establishment Democrats to stand up to Trump, they want him doing exactly what he's doing.

This is because behind the scenes, it really is a uniparty, and the only thing any of them really care about is money.

Political parties and disagreements are for the lower classes.

Yes, Trump has given money to some Democrats in the past over the years. Guess what, Elon Musk used to be an environmental hero to liberal: in other words, people change. Have you ever once looked at the voting records and kinds of bills voted into law by Democrats and Republicans? I seriously doubt it. You just spout "both sides same" rhetoric without looking at the actual receipts.

it really is a uniparty

It's very weird that 1/2 of the "uniparty" always votes to give gigantic GOP tax cuts to billionaires and 1/2 always votes against this.

they are playing thier part, they know the tax cuts will benefit the dnc as well, since most of them are as rich or richer than the GOP, its performative opposition, but a bunch of the dinos vote against any significant bills that could make dems lose thier leverage in future elections.
