Democrats Fear Getting Trounced by Trump Again

Politico: “The party loses its standard-bearer once President Barack Obama leaves office, and the Democratic National Committee won’t get a permanent chairman and staff until March, two months into the presidency. That Democratic power vacuum has raised concerns about the party’s ability to provide a united message — or even to stand up a centralized rapid response operation — for the president’s first 100 days in office.”

“Their worst nightmare is that Trump, ever the showman, will define his opening act with little unified resistance.”
