i vote blue in every election, I am a husband, father, and public school teacher...honestly my life is completely full and scheduled out. I don't have time for volunteering to political parties nor do I have money to buy elections.

The state of our country today is partially on the dems for wanting to be the party of "status quo" instead of the party of Universal Healthcare and Tuition Free College. The dems will continue to lose when the party is stuck in 1996 with Elizabeth Warren, Chuck Schumer, Nancy Pelosi, and the rest of the old guard.

Progressive politicians with actual policies with broad appeal. We cant only go out in support of social issue culture war issues. You run on child care, healthcare, roads, and other benefits then you might have a chance.

Being the party of "orange man bad" doesn't work at the ballot box.

Your house in on fire because half the members of your house made stupid decisions, and you want the firefighters to start proposing plans for a new big beautiful house, while you nitpick their plans. Forget about putting out the fire before it consumes the world. Good luck!

You don't get time to protest, you make time to protest. If it's important enough, you find a way!
