34. Stay laser focused on the midterms. We will take back our country!

We don't need to wait that long. If we fight hard to win the midterms we can start taking back our country this year. No need to wait decades, no need to wait a lifetime. Flip both the house and senate blue and it will make a huge difference. I'm not saying it will be like flipping a light switch. Democrats will have tons of work to do but we can make things better.

I really highly recommend volunteering for your local Democrats. Find a candidate you like and volunteer for them. Knock on doors, phone bank. Remember roughly 30% of people don't usually vote. If we can turn more of those people out and get them to vote blue we can flip seats everywhere and we can win big but it will take you and lots of people like you all making a difference to make it happen.
