That's like blaming firefighters for not being able to put out fires as fast as arsonists can set them.
Voters are the only reason why Trump is still here. Sure, you can say that democratic representatives could/should be doing more, but aren't we way past that point now? This is trump's second term... voters want him in power. As fucking stupid as that is.
It's more like blaming city council because they refuse to pass any regulations that might reduce the number of fires, because it would hurt their donors in the construction industry.
We are way past the point where democrats could have done anything, and we arrived here because all through my almost fifty year lifetime and before, people on the left have been warning them about the US's decline towards fascism, the takeover of their media and the dominance of voter suppression, and they've chosen to never take any action to stop it. I fail to see why they should escape blame now, after making the bed they are lying in.
Sure, in the sense that the neoliberals are Marcus Licinius Crassus in this analogy.

Dude, that is FUCKED UP. Mobster racketeering in ancient times!
I see your point of view!
No, that's a bad analogy because the firefighters are trying to put out the fires to the best of their ability. The Democrats aren't doing shit, and in some cases siding with the fascists.
