Tired of the media inviting right wing nutbags and then asking their suggestions

to "fix" the Democratic party.

To start with....the electoral college elected trump. Not the people.
There were election role purges.
Russia and trumpco interfered in the elections.
Enough votes were shaved off in enough places that we lost. That is it in a nutshell.

The REASON that people are in the streets is because the Democratic Party (those who did and those who didn't vote) are awake.

This is NOT the Democratic party thinking that the party needs to stay the same OR move further to the right.

WE ARE HEADING LEFT! With our without you....we are going left.

The Jim Webb's can stay behind. The Manchins can stay behind.

BUT...we are not going to allow ourselves to be pulled further right.

I just hope the Dem party gets it this election cycle and follows through.

Meanwhile, I will seek out and vote for progressives whenever I can up and down the ballot.

These folks have done study after study about the Human brain triggers. They are in the for profit media game. This garbage sells,and they win by the end of the day. They own the Microphone. And the Media owners are going to favor the GOP over anyone. It's Business,and if I control the Narrative,I win.
