12. Democrats aren't going to try to win in 2022-24?

Seems like I keep hearing this recurring theme that Republicans are pretty much going to win in 2022 because of "history" or partisan Republican voting law changes (which will have to make their way through the courts), or whatever, like it's something Republicans are entitled to?? It's been a talking point on M$M more than once as though they want to talk us into a Republican victory before we ever go to the polls. Sheesh. Yeah, we're going to need to GOTV but we've STILL got a better plan for the people. As long as we keep our promises (i.e. no tax increase on people making under $400K) and keep introducing popular legislation that Republicans keep blocking things people actually want, maybe we can appeal to voters in 2022 to give us big enough majorities to finally deliver what they want.
