Democrats are hoping to create some fresh resistance magic to mark President Donald Trump’s 100 days in office.
They recognize they may not have all the answers for how best to do that yet. But they’re leaning into experimentation and a more maximalist approach, with plans to get hours of fresh anti-Trump content pumped out to voters this week.
In both the House and Senate, Democratic lawmakers are marking the day by decrying Trump’s return to office as “100 days of costs, chaos and corruption,” as Sen. Mark Warner put it, or pointing to the president’s tanking poll numbers as a sign of fading confidence. Senate Democrats plan to take hold of the floor Tuesday afternoon and speak late into the night in protest of Trump, a tactic that echoes the viral 24-hour protest speech held by Sen. Cory Booker last month.
