Clue-its not Trump unless you believe he is part of the swamp. Who is it?
What a bunch of nonsense. This is just school yard bull. Why not talk about REAL topics?
There is no denying Trump is the leader of the Republican Party. But the party is still split and not working together.
As to the Democrats, they are still trying to figure out their leader. Many Dems seem to want a Bernie socialist type party and some seem to want to go in the identity/grievance politics Perez direction, in my opinion from reading.

Nobody... Obama is history at least for the moment.
Pelosi... She appears to be going senile. This isn't to be snarky. I was the primary caregiver for my Grandmother, who suffered from senility, for more than a decade and the tale tale signs are very familiar.
Schumer... Hardly! His approval ratings are at 25%, worse than Ryans. He is trying his best to imitate Reid which is pathetic at best.
I would say Joe Manchin would be the best choice, as an example for Liberals to follow, but he is far too logical, open minded, and willing to work across the aisle for them.

I only know her as a consummate liar and class warfare warrior. SHE is exactly what's wrong with the party.
One can only wonder why progressives bother to stay in a country where they have lost over 1000 of legislative seats nationally since 2010 and have seen their presidential messiah replaced not by their exalted female demigod, but by a Caucasian, heterosexual, and pro-Christian capitalist with no political experience despite having cultural control through the universities, the entertainment industry, and the mainstream media for more than half a century, and they have been unable to convert enough Americans to give them a lasting majority in the Electoral College.
They have a lot of work to do... first step is to find a leader.
I saw Nancy spitting and slobbering on one of the Sunday morning silly shows and she said the D party has NEVER in her entire life been so focused and committed.
She should probably be committed. She's truly loony tunes.
Just as it always is after a defeat, the losing party just had a big turnover at the top, so it will take a while before the single leader emerges after things settle down.
If one does at all. After the 2012 defeat, the Republican party never had a single leader emerge. They had several, and most went in to the primaries, where the single leader is usually decided as often as not.
The RNC hasn't been the big stick it once was. I don't think the DNC will be the big stick next time either. Both parties are doing things differently now than how they operated in the 20th century.
I think the time when the Central Committees of both parties called all the shots is long gone and may not ever come back.

And I have lost a lot of respect for the republican party for cowering to him when they don't even agree with him. But they seem to be scared of him for some reason. I know many republicans don't like McCain but he and Graham have been the only ones to call him out because they could care less of his backlash. That is what I call working for us and not catering to this president's whim of the day.
