No end in sight until everyone gets off their ass and elects some Democrats.

We've been the bipartisany-adults-in-the-room for way too long; compromising, reaching across the aisle etc etc etc. As Avenatti would say, #Basta!

(45,481 posts)4. Disagree, any Democrat will help give us a majority. Some fighters can help push the whole party
forward. Not every area is the same.
