The Democratic Party Slides Into Irrelevance
Briefly

The weekend saw unprecedented opposition to Donald Trump with the 'No Kings' protests drawing millions nationwide, presenting a stark contrast to Trump's lackluster military parade. This indicates significant grassroots discontent among Americans. However, the Democratic Party appeared largely irrelevant as many prominent leaders were absent, attending social events instead. Notably, some local politicians, like Governor Gavin Newsom, attempted to position themselves as key figures opposing Trump, yet the protests seemed to stem more from the public than from party leadership, which may have undermined the Democrats' influence during this crucial moment.
The nationwide 'No Kings' protests coinciding with Trump's military parade illustrated a striking contrast, with millions demonstrating against him while the parade drew little attention.
Despite the protests showcasing intense grassroots opposition to Trump, the Democratic Party's relevance seemed diminished, with key leaders attending a high-profile wedding instead.
