After Pentagon deleted Jackie Robinson from web site, donations are flooding Jackie Robinson museum. Many in amount of $42 to commemorate Robinson's number.
We're having the problems we're having because Dems didn't throw all of their support behind these two and their policy proposals after Obama.
Unfortunately it is late. But they are still right. And what they are proposing is still the way out of our current situation.
There is the conundrum. If Dems had been supporting this direction since 2016 we'd probably have a stable of people, I would think...
AOC would be the BEST choice because of her grassroots nature, but I don't know. There just isn't any real strong candidates, and that's concerning.
I don't think she can win though Bernie too old And the other two that are trying to make a case for themselves Tim Walz and Gavin Newsome...no just no
Gavins chance was against Biden when he was going up against Trump for California. AOC needs to try, at least. Probably wouldn't win but she'd be the best grassroots shot since? Bernie has zero shot. If they did all the old jokes to biden... yikes Walz has good ideas but he was hard to connect with beyond "he's a nice guy"
Good too see Bernie is drawing out so many people. People are angry. That's good. Midterms can't come soon enough. We need other Dems from Congress and the Senate raising their voices too and going out and doing these rallies. Have to build momentum. The people are angry. Be angry too. Show your constituents and other voters who are angry at what is happening you aren't just sitting around watching Trump destroy the country. The more Dems speak aloud about it, the more they go out and do these rallies, and give the people a voice, the weaker it will make Trump and his administration. Republicans won't do this right now. They know people are pissed. They are scared of facing them. Dems need to be the opposite. That is how you begin to get back to the people and right a sunken ship. That's how you win the next election (and next election cycle). There are few Dems doing this (Bernie, AOC, Walz, Newsome) right now. We need more, many more to do this, especially with all that is going on. It's not too early. In fact any time past now is too late. The Dem party barely has a pulse. Time to inject some epinephrine with one of those giant ass needles and get this son of a bitch going.
Adam Schiff said they should campaign on Democrats get shit done. Biden got a lot done, although media mostly focused on he is old. Trump had no accomplishments. It's what Bernie and AOC realize, to connect with people you need to have the better story. McCain had a stronger resume than Obama. Who had the excitement?
Congressman Ro Khanna is holding town halls in Republican districts whose Congress members refuse to meet with constituents. 500 turned out in heavily Republican Bakersfield.
