What are doing to rise to occasion, Bob? Also, Governors Newsom and Pritzker aren't the only Democratic Governors doing something. Do your research because other outlets have highlighting them as well

You do understand that there's a limit to the number of characters available on a post, don't you? Simply because someone doesn't mention exactly what you would have written doesn't mean they need to do more "research." Pay attention to your own posts.

I understand that and I also understand that you didn't answer my question, Bob. Answering my question isn't limited to character limits. Additionally, there is a '+' at the bottom of a post, so that can add additional context. +

Moreover, you mentioned two governors who have only been interviews by MSM for weeks. Not a mention of Governor Wes Moore or Mayors Brandon Johnson of Chicago, Karen Bass, or Brandon Scott who the MSM have ignored, but who have also pushed back. +

You made a decision to put up a political cartoon that paint Democrats at the federal level as listless and lacking the will. The comment section under your post verified this. Work is being done despite being voted into the minority. +

And we WERE the minority in the House before 2024.We GAINED seats inc flipping 4 red seats.We had a tie in the senate-Not a majority yet we held onto 5 of 7 senate seats when experts said we’d lose them all.This party is over performing by 15% in special elections.We are not Listless or lack spirit

Democrats lead republicans in the generic ballot by 8 points & growing. The media narrative is lazy & dishonest.

Therefore, when I said to do your research, I meant that if you could find that political cartoon and lift up two governors currently receiving constant coverage from the MSM, you can also find those elected officials that are doing the same with not even half the coverage. Have a good day.

Thank you for this!! Cartoons like this feed the ignorance that others have - governors are executives & thus have more power, especially if they also have Dem AGs and Legislatures. As you say, Congressional Dems don't have much power at all in the minority. So tired of explaining this to people.

That is true in the House - though Jeffries could at least say more and use his voice and visibility more than he does. I used to write about the Senate and I can tell you as a matter of fact that Schumer could be doing more - he just isn't.

republicans aren't even offering more legislation than they have to, so not much happening in either side of Congress. There just isn't a valid comparison between a state executive and any member of Congress in the minority party.

All the Democratic attorneys general are working together, meeting virtually every day to compare notes, strategies, update on lawsuits, etc. Which means every Democratic governor is, in fact, DOING SOMETHING, Bob!
