The article critiques the Democratic Party's inability to leverage its political power, highlighted by House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries' resignation to their lack of control over government. Despite previously warning of Trumpâs potential impact, their current responses seem ineffective. Schumer's loss of leverage further emphasizes this point. Jeffries likens the Democrats' strategy to a baseball player selectively swinging at pitches, but questions remain regarding their actual ability to engage effectively in the political arena given their lack of leverage.
"What leverage do we have?" says Democratic House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries. "They control the House, the Senate and the presidency; it's their government."
When Jeffries explained the Democrats' strategy, he compared himself to New York Yankees all-star Aaron Judge: "one of the reasons that [Judge] is a great hitter is that he does not swing at every pitch."
