If I post about a problem, I might not know the solution

I am not a political operative or an expert on campaigns and elections.

I might have some ideas, and I would offer them if so.

But that doesn't mean I shouldn't cry out about Trump dismantling mail in voting or GOP States having massive suppression. Or the Trump Administration and the GOP running a completely unconstitutional Government.

I can do what I can and support those that can have an effective response.

There is also room for discussion here from others for solutions.

But if I can only respond to "What are you going to do about it" with "I don't know" shouldn't preempt me from posting about the problems.

Recognizing the problems is a first and necessary step.

It’s frustrating to see all this unfolding and not know what’s happening behind the scenes to try to thwart the bad stuff.
