Are Demcrats' lack of vociferous outrage a real lack or strategic?
I don't know the answer but can surely make a case that it could be a very good strategy.
First, with the daily, sometimes (literally) hourly reasons for outrage from this administration, the outrage would soon enough become little more than noise. Then white noise. Then numbing. Then meaningless.
Next, the Dems will very soon have the ability to investigate, subpoena, and even issue contempt citations. If this were preceded by OUTRAGE, it would lose at least a degree of seriousness. Far better, it would seem, to let the results and testimony tell their own tales.
Further, right now, Democrats have no power to do a damned thing, so why caterwaul? Kind of akin to farting in a windstorm.
Personally, I see no need for concerted outrage from elected Dems. While I tend to be outraged every day all day, I have zero impact on a damned thing that matters. I also think it is fine for a Dem here or a Dem there displaying targeted outrage.

There are a fair number of calls from some DUers, often the same ones, for our leaders to at least sound more like Republicans.
Let this be the final answer to that 
: They would, sometimes, if it worked. They would tell themselves to close their eyes and think of Russia. It doesn't -- it turns off and ultimately repels liberal voters.
While liberals watched appalled, most conservatives loved this rant, were proud of Lindsey! A call to rally to the flag.
And this one.
