24. If Democrats' work speaks for itself
Sun Oct 12, 2025, 01:18 PM
13 hrs ago

why is our polling so low and why did we lose the House and Senate. Why is Trump in the White House?

We have to take the lead on messaging, not wait then react to some asinine statement from the Speaker or the tyrant occupying the White House. Mainstream media ignores standards and shaves the truth if it gets them access to Republicans in power, so why not turn up the heat with something they wouldn’t dare NOT cover?
