This will then energize the Republicans voters and they will turn up in droves and elect Republicans to the House.

Play nice and the progressives will see the traditional Democrats kowtowing to the Republicans as in "business as usual", will not trust them anymore and will either stay home during elections or nominate extreme candidates in the primaries.

Again, what is really lacking is the messaging from the Democrats. We need a few representatives from safe seats (preferably women) telling the suburban women voters, "GOP is the new GQP and they are evil".
As much as I like Biden as president he comes off as too much of a nice guy. We need someone working with him who can do pissed-off well. An attack dog if you will. Starting with the Big Lie and the attempted insurrection to Repub hypocrisy to Repub obstructionism down to the entire party trying to thwart the will of the American people the majority of whom elected Joe Biden president. Lay it all out there for all to see. The best defense is a good offense. Without a good defense we will see tRump in the WH again and the GQP marching the nation into authoritarianism.
