33. Is Kirsten Gillebrand a NYC Dem?

Does Schumer only lead Dems in NYC or does he have a national leadership role? Is Hakeem Jefferies only relevant to nYC?
Do you really think if our national party leaders and Dems outside of NYC destroy a duly elected NYC nominee, that young people outside of NYC won't notice?
Given that NYC is nearly half the populations of NY state, do you think losing the young vote in our 2nd biggest blue state doesn't matter, like we don't need them anymore because, fascism?

You think this has nothing to do with you. You think it could have no impact on Trump and fascism.
You certainly don't have to engage on this subject if you don't think it matters, but telling others they are wrong to do so is ridiculous.
Shall I compare your argument to some cartoonish character in a movie based on sexist selfish adolescent entitled drunks to get my point across?
