Democrats should hammer Republicans on the war in Ukraine. Ukraine is vastly more popular than Criminal Trump in the United States. Russia and Putin have single-digit approvals.
Dems: Stand up in the Senate and spend 25 hours talking about the atrocities of this war, starting with Russia breaking their commitment to leave Ukraine alone in exchange for Ukraine giving up nuclear weapons. Talk about the daily war crimes of Russia--the rapes, the intentional civilian casualties, the kidnappings, the torture of captives. Call for Putin to stand trial in an international tribunal for the crime of aggression. Go into it in detail, then put forward a bill to contribute another $50 billion or so in military aid to Ukraine.
Take one of Criminal Trump's lies, like the idea that this was Biden's war, and hammer it for 12 hours or so.
Not only is it the morally correct thing to do, it is the politically correct thing to do. The vast majority of Americans would prefer to see Russia lose this war. So, drive down Trump's approval ratings by blasting him repeatedly for siding with Putin.
And call him "Loser Trump" because he's been siding with Putin. Europe is never going to let Russia win in Ukraine because they'd be next.. So, Putin has no off ramp. He's going to lose, and Criminal Trump will lose along with him.
Make every minute in the Senate another minute where Republicans suffer for their complicity in the morally bankrupt Trump regime.
It would be hard for Democrats to become so vocally pro-Ukraine because they have always been ambivalent about Russia and NATO. Their base hates neocons at least as much as they hate Trump, and they would rather die than admit neocons were right about anything.

That’s true. It would be hard.
But this is a time that calls for doing hard things.
