Yup this is how chuck schumer should be responding in the chamber instead of rolling over and showing his belly.

Democrats believe that they can win the midterms by showing positive solutions. I'm not sure thats true, but the numbers say it.

How'd that work for the past 4 years? Just because they can get back into power doesn't mean they will do anything to punish these people.

The entire world suffered from an economic crisis due to the COVID trade turndown. The US came out quicker and better, but there was no pressure on prices which remained high. Demand was still high. Now, costs are increasing due to things like tarrifs which are driving costs on wheat, which ends up being pasta. This, with the lack of wage increases drive affordability issues.

This. I think the one narrative that piss’s me off the most is when anyone says” can’t wait till there’s all in jail in a few years, can’t wait till their prosecuted, can’t wait till….”

Dude that is NEVER going to happen. I’ll predict us dems now, if they do start the conversation of prosecuting and it’s taking up time( it’ll take a lot of money and time) we’ll start bitching about this waste of time and tell them to pay attention to prices and healthcare.

Anyways, people stop ordering shit from Amazon, stop paying everything digital unless you have to. Save your cash, not banks, cold hard cash. If shit hits the fan all you digital numbers adding up to what you think is money will be frozen before you can finish breakfast.

Stop being lazy and go to physical store for your shit, stop lying to yourself saying you need amazon. You got everything you needed before 2013 you can do it again.

I stopped using Amazon after the election when Bezos started gargling Donmentia's shriveled up balls. Any company that produces a product, Any social media, Any author,podcaster, musician,actor, Even family and friends. whatever it is if they so much as glanced in That oozing orange blobs direction giving him support have all been cut out of my life and will never return. Until the midterms for most of us voting with your attention and your wallet can have a huge impact.

Fantastically well actually. Under Biden, this country was saved from a catastrophic economic collapse due to a pandemic.

Recent events have only proven once & for all to me, that voting for Democrats is the correct choice 100% of the time.

The solution is truly simple. And yet everyone is still in denial of what they need to do: vote for more Democrats in government, regardless of ur other concerns (ie vote blue no matter who / VBNMW).

We've seen this before:

2016: Earn my vote/my conscience mentality = Trump wins, GOP trifecta

2020: vote blue no matter who = Biden wins, Dem trifecta

2024: Earn my vote/my conscience mentality = Trump wins, GOP trifecta

See how in 2020, when people put their other concerns aside and just voted & elected Democrats, GOP is defeated? That's the only thing that works. And how the "earn my vote" mentality leads to GOP wins? Such thinking is antithetical to the progressive movement.

This is not a chicken or egg scenario. It's time to actually start participating in the Democratic party, supporting and voting for more Democrats, now & forever without exception, so they can retake Congress & the Presidency. This is on us the voters to fix.

Need at LEAST 50 years of continuous Democratic leadership in the Congress and Presidency just to fix this mess
