You do it because the race for mid-terms started Jan 21st. Either the Dems believe in doing the right thing for Americans or they believe in vengeance. I don't think we need another party of vengeance.
People will feel the downside of Trump's policies. Dems need to welcome them. Not shun them

While I agree that it’s the right thing to do, her constituents will never give Democrats credit for any positive outcome. I live in Salazar’s district. It is hardcore MAGA Cubans. Salazar will claim the win and Cubans will continue to vote R down the ballot. I interact with these people daily

Hardcore MAGAts don’t care and we shouldn’t care about them.
We need to focus on who does care and support their efforts to stand up to the fascist regime.
We can’t be siloed and fragmented.
The voters have to get a taste of what they voted for if we ever expect them to come around.
We can't just rescue the MAGA politicians... if she wants to change party, then we should help.
Did you miss that part?

it's coming back though 😎
So you're basically saying Democrats are prison-bitches.
Nah, that's the guy who skirted two federal and one state criminal crime.

- Stay informed
- Share independent media
- Become independent media-bear witness /document abuse
- Develop method for conducting untraceable crowdfunding ($TRUMP) to support:
1) Legal battles
2) Security for judges & independent media
Any opposition party needs to oppose them loudly...so that they can use that in 2 years.
And to your point, we need every voter...and "I told you so" gets us nothing.
Just shaking our finger at them will not make the problem go away. Just asking nicely will not work.

They need to hold their elected officials accountable. Hit the streets, make the calls, do the work.
I’m F’ing tired.
Ads. Billboards. Protests. Plaster the stores with them.
Step 1 is we need money. We need business owners to support it. As workers we need to strike till the bosses start donating to these efforts.
Sustainable resistance.
Michelle Os speech of “When they go low” I don’t recall when she made it. Point is, it hasn’t worked.
Log off Mark. Go touch grass.
Vacillation and appeasement on the part of Biden got you to where you and we are today.
If the Dems don't come up with real solutions and stop pushing "R's and Trump Suck", etc etc, our Country is in huge trouble.
got into a long argument on another thread of yours with someone who was advocating for "armed resistance"
this is juvenile and self-defeating
Make America America Again. "MAAA!"
They also very much STILL support those that can bring in money, and not those that can govern for the people.
Their focus is RNC based with more steps.
I think one of our big mistakes was giving up on Obama’s message of hope and change.
The only thing we should be focused on right now is opening eyes. If reason didn't do it then let suffering take a crack at it.
Tons of people split ballots. I think voters are thought of as groups not individuals.
They will not be swayed with compassion.
The ONLY focus of Dems should be on capturing a solid portion of the 36% who sat the election out.
Growing tired of your penchant for appeasement in pursuit of a fantasy of reconciliation with GOP voters.
While it can be both there is no guaranteed political upside while the energy and distraction BOTH have a cost to the Dems who would engage in this strategy.
Also she posted some bigoted anti immigrant post right before she cried for mercy for her immigrants. It's gross.
If we just continue normalizing the entire Republican Party abusing their trust from Americans and religiously targeting us with lies, conspiracy theories, & dishonest rhetoric.
NOTHING WILL CHANGE
EVERY TIME!
And they need to start calling these clowns what they’re…
Unpatriotic pathological liars
It took Hitler 53 days to dismantle a democracy.
-- bigotry V diversity
-- ignorance V education
-- lies V truths
-- crime V principles
I'm not seeing how Dems giving up what they believe in will help them. It would simply turn them into an inferior copy of MAGA.
I agree with you. They’ll never know what’s going on & they certainly won’t blame trump. They’ll pay the higher prices because trump is sticking it to”insert country name”.
That info bubble is our problem.
Water is all down, and we will get TRUMP
SCREW magats, conservatives and Republicans
Where is Hakeem Jeffries in all this?
The Harris campaign ran on unity and love and lost.
Do we dare run back the same playbook in 2026? And then again in 2028?
Do we need different messages to spread the message?
Get in their way as much as humanly possible.
Fight back. Fight dirty.
They look like they are high high high and I've never understood the glee.
You just compromised with horrible mediocre white dudes.
Why are you happy???
Loudly. However we can to get them to do it.
If they won't, then if it's allowed Primary them.
But don't let them say "we didn't know that's what you wanted" like always.
😑
That one is so annoying, like a gnat buzzing just out of sight.
Don’t just try to garner votes. Help people.
We never won anyone over by saying i told you so.
Its all a distraction for the wealthy elites tax cuts.
#followthemoney
I've been doing it 9 years and have lost some family and a few "friends" on the way. So no - I won't be doing it again.
But if you had noted "I tell them ... " then I say terrific! Keep it up! And Good luck with it!
Thanks for your sound advice.

Disagree!
He ignores all acts of good faith, repeating his norm shredding to desensitize all to his ugliness and danger.
Don't let him.
SHUN HIM now.
This ISN'T a call for vengeance.
It is a call to make him fully responsible for what happens.

I think there’s an argument to be made… rather than chase Trump fires…. focus on voter registrations and better messaging.
Germany seemed to thrive without a Nazi govt after WW2, Japan too (Nazis in all but name).
Both became two of the largest economies in the world.
I believe trying to “work” with Nazis is a waste of time and actually more harmful to our democracy.
You’re a billionaire. You don’t understand average Americans like you claim to.
Stop telling people how to think and act.
Let them experience consequences.
Miami cubans are racist AF & hate other Latinos and only care about themselves.
Enable them & you think they will learn and be grateful? NO. NEVER.
It is their racism that led them to leave Cuba in the first place.
- Then communicate these.
- Simply.
- Clearly.
- Concisely.
Unfair wages? Women being degraded?
So many other things.
I can't welcome any of that or anything about him and the ones who go along.
to have say a 30 seat House majority in 2027
Thank goodness you were not a founder or the greatest generation. We'd be German speaking subjects of a king.
And then, maybe we make nice, but there is no way to simply forget that they are the ones that got us here.
There is such a thing as time! Time is running out.
The MAGA party is not only vengeful, the are power hungry.
People like Mark don't make anything except money and cost reductions.
No billionaire will be doing the work to make change.
Change is 'made', not commanded from the top. It will be made by everyday Americans.
