[I think the Dems will put up a greater and more desperate ‘resistance’ to the Trump2 administration that they did to Trump1 and also the interregnum Trump. The poor bastards have nothing else to offer thinking Americans – i.e. no policy alternatives that anyone who pays attention would accept. All they have left is a pathetic program of digging up dirt that doesn’t stick to anything that Trump proposes. And that effort is patently silly to all except their own hard core socialists/communists and media lackeys. gjr]

Hey – Biden did “deliver”. He delivered the office of the presidency over to a cabal of left-wing loons while he sat on a beach chair by the sea and watched the waves roll in.
He signed whatever they put in front of him without reading any of it and tried his darndest to follow the teleprompter once in a while.
Hunter delivered the dough to the family and Biden delivered pardons to Hunter and all the other crooked liars in his admin.
Biden certainly delivered.

HAHA –
“The full-scale assault by the conservative movement on liberal domination of the nation’s culture has begun to deliver key victories,” said Edsall, after decades of bitterness from conservatives “over the leftward tilt of academia, the literary world, the press, television and streaming video.”
This pendulum swing of culture from left to right has also had an effect on cable news networks, according to Edsall.
Anya Schiffrin, the director of the technology, media and communications program at Columbia University’s School of International and Public Affairs, claimed in an email to Edsall that conservatives are also winning on the communications front.
Schiffrin stated that “part of why the Republicans are so successful is the message rather than the medium. Republicans keep their message extremely simple and focus on topics that have salience. Explaining the nuances of crime statistics and telling people not to worry about crime is not persuasive when people go daily to CVS and see all the toothpaste and aspirin are under lock and key or feel threatened on the street or subway.”
This pushback on progressive ideas also made its way into sports and music, as pointed out by Wall Street Journal reporters Aaron Zitner and Meridith McGraw in their Jan. 19 article, “How MAGA Is Taking Back the Culture.”
“Instead of taking a knee to call for social justice, N.F.L. players are doing the ‘Trump dance’ in the end zone at football games. Mainstream entertainers, among them the country singer Carrie Underwood and the rapper Snoop Dogg, agreed to perform at events celebrating Donald Trump’s inauguration, something music stars largely shunned eight years ago,” the WSJ reporters said.
Edsall also placed blame on the elite universities across America for pushing culture to the right.
“Among the most damaging developments for the left include the failure of elite universities, bastions of liberalism, to deal with antisemitic protests during Israel’s attacks on Gaza; the current exodus of reporters, editors and subscribers at The Washington Post, a mainstay of liberal journalism; the discrediting of academia’s commitment to free speech as a result of the disclosure of their cancellation of controversial speakers; the relative absence of conservative professors in most fields; and the requirement that faculty members file annual mandatory diversity statements.”
