I won’t concede that. GW sent us to war on a lie. Never forget.

I vote for both.

Why do you think that’s the crowd? If I lived there, I’d go and I voted. I am looking for our legislators to be pushing back all day everyday.

The relentless slagging of rural Dems actually ended a long-term friendship for me, personally. I know so many wonderful, courageous, principled people here in Iowa. They stand up for Dem values every day - and the rest of the party should *honor* them, not attack them.

Big city Democrats always look down on rural Democrats. They can't stop ruining their own party to save their lives.

Thanks for speaking up about rural Dems. Really appreciate your voice highlighting the strength of Blue communities like mine living in red areas like the Appalachian Mountains of Western NC.

Irresponsible?! He has declared war on the constitution. What is the responsible thing to do? I think their oath includes defending the constitution. They are not there to agree with the President! That is not their job.

Are we talking about those that didn’t even vote? Yeah I doubt they will fight. Plenty of us want to fight, but feel frustrated with those closest to the power.

Ok, attacks don’t help, but pressuring our Dem leaders to be relentless seems like a good idea right now. We need to look ahead, not backwards. The future needs strength and strategy.

If the house is burning down, get water, call the fire dept, but criticizing the arsonist isn’t going to put the fire out. Do all of the things.

I don’t think the people that would not vote made the right choice. This was always going to be the result. Same thing in 2016. I’m pissed.

Why can’t it be both? We are looking for focused plain talking leaders. He is too diplomatic for me right now.

Thank you for posting. We need to know about all of the abuses. Put a spotlight in it all!

It is if our legislators decide to use their power.

We need all of the Democrats to put themselves on the line. Complete resistance is what I am looking for.

I think they believe what he says and/or they know he lies and don’t care.

It really is what you believe. I think Trump makes things up regularly. When he says he found corruption and waste, in days, I assume it is a lie. He said something like “they go in, they ask questions and can tell right away.” How does anyone believe this??

We are looking for leaders. Keep going!

I get that! I like the phrase “you don’t find leaders in the ivory tower.”

We need @petebuttigieg.bsky.social to become the official VOICE of the OPPOSITION PARTY!!!!

Many thousands in the US protested yesterday. There are plenty of people that are not complacent. They just don’t know what to do to make a change.

We need a few brave people to lead us. We are looking for someone to speak up and give us some hope.

Wait, I thought they wanted more babies. Confused.

Apparently it was actually renamed after Roland Bragg. So it seems Hegseth does understand why it should not be named after a Confederate General.

So he wants to go to war?

We do. We understand what some people believe. We just don’t understand why they believe much of what he says. He is not an honest person. Many things document this fact including our own eyes and ears.

They would lose a lot of money and I would never ask them to do that. They would be giving up their dreams and breaking a contract.

I just don’t see the direct connection between watching a football game because of a person attending the game. I don’t like that they removed “end racism” from the end zone, but I’m going to watch my team tonight. I’m not letting this attendee interrupt my life whenever possible.

I am not boycotting my team. If I didn’t care, maybe. Go Birds.

I don’t think this has proven to change anything. In fact, it may have turned some MAGA. I get it, but others don’t.

The rallies should not be allowed any more. We are paying for the security and travel. Why is this ok?

How could they think anything other than what is happening would be happening?
