Where has the Democratic leadership been the

Last week or so? I have not heard or seen anything from them for quite a while. I know they are working on the stimulus package, but they should be out there contradicting and correcting Trump every time after a presser. Trump lies non-stop, the reporters for the most part do not question his lies and the Democrats are nowhere to be seen or heard. When a lie is told often enough without rebuke, people start to believe it. I have already seen statistics that more the 50% of the country think he is handling this pandemic very well. We need some national television time rebuttals to his insanity.

What I mean is there are about 280 Democrats between the House and the Senate. Can't they spare a couple to fact check Trump every time he opens his mouth. There is a fairly large percentage of the people in this country that believe every word he says is Gospel. Maybe fact checking him daily, some will come to their senses and start searching out the real truth.
