From the article:

With former President Barack Obama evincing little appetite to reclaim a leadership role and no clear 2020 presidential front-runner, Democrats lack a commanding figure to oversee strategy and help bridge the internal fissures in the party.

I thought that is what "commanding figure" Nancy Pelosi does?

The Democrats remind me of that scene from The Godfather, except they cut of the rump (not the head) in their attempt to take out Trump; and it was a donkey, not a horse.

But they still managed to dump it in their own bed.
