    Great thoughts. One of the points I particularly agree with is that dems point out what won’t work. They are the “against” party. Part of that is bc the minority has to act in opposition. For as awful as the GOP is, they are “for” things. The demsocs at least stand for something.

      Pointing out that a shit sandwich smells funny isn’t going to help people who can’t afford to buy a good sandwich.

      Democrats need a leader. They don’t need to warn people about Trump 10 years after the fact. People don’t need that. They need Democrats to do their job and motivate voters.

      Warning about sharks in the water doesn’t help when you can’t provide a life boat.
