“You’ve gotta be engaged. You’ve gotta hold elected officials accountable, like what’s going on at these town halls. And you gotta organize.” Pete Buttigieg

With all due respect, Pete, and I do respect you, why don’t you direct your suggestions to the democratic leadership? Seriously. I am so done with this group of introverts who look down in embarrassment while the Republicans drag Al Green out of the Hall!
It's difficult to take on another full-time job when voters may already be doing more than one to make ends meet. Reality. Not an excuse. People have to keep their homes and feed their kids no matter who is in office. "Organizing" and "holding accountable" other adults is work.
And when you stand up with a mic in your hand at a town hall, please use this expression:

Point out that that’s what GOP politicians are complicit in.

"What Democracy Brings”
“People living in democracies are more secure, prosperous & safe than those in unfree settings
Declines in freedom lead to declines in prosperity & security
It creates a more dangerous world”

I'll go protest when the Democrats in congress start acting like an opposition party.
Does that sound fair to you?
