#politics File this under “Be the change you want to see.” Democrats are famous for their handwringing. What a waste of energy. Stop acting like you don’t believe in the cause. Stop acting like the power of the people isn’t a thing. Stop whining about not having the perfect candidate. My guy had a cold — their guy has a chronic case of venal criminality, toxic narcissism, and delusions of dictatorship. My guy surrounds himself with competence. Their guy surrounds himself with criminals
give up on aspirational America? Do your giving up in silence then, as a favor to the rest of us. If you don’t, donate, canvas, make phone calls, pray, gather and buck each other up. Judas H. Priest. Nobody’s asking you to load a musket or storm a beach. Not yet, but if it should come to that I don’t have plans to wonder whether I could have done more. END
@LKNWoman I appreciate this thread and hope many take it to heart.
@LKNWoman You lost me at that pray thang.
@TrueBloodNet Whatever — my party is a big party. Some people do that. If you don’t, don’t. WTAH?
@LKNWoman Don't bring religion into it if you want to reach the 28% who don't do that. You demanded we do all those things in your statement. Reread it. It wasn't 'optional' by what you said.
@TrueBloodNet LOL! That’s a pretty strict reading of a list of things one could do if not looking for an excuse to whine and sit on their ass. Never “demanded” anyone do all of those things. It was intended as a partial menu of things one could do. I think most people got that. Bye.
@LKNWoman I hope you change how you put that though, so you reach more people. If you can't take criticism, talking on SM seems an odd hobby. Have a lovely day.
@LKNWoman the issue isn't going to be democrats, it's going to be swing voters. They didn't see the performance we needed them to see last night. Try to see the choice through their lense. We are right to be terrified right now.
@Captain_Blood_86 I didn’t say don’t be terrified, if that works for you. I said get to work. Being confident in the vision we have for America is the starting point. Some of y’all act like having a capable candidate is a problem, while the people who have a lying criminal as their candidate aren’t bothered at all.
and crackpots, and they’re the ones who want to install the orange puppet. They’re not morons like TFG, but they’re just as amoral and self-serving. And yet you feel bad about where we are? You surely don’t wonder whether you’re on the right side of things, so stop being so damn negative. It’s fucking scary enough without giving into the intimidation the other side is so clearly trying to employ. Be BOLD in your patriotism, compassion, and RIGHTNESS. We are in the right by leagues. You want to
