I like Jeffries. He's smart, capable, intelligent, ethical, and certainly has the best interests of the USA at heart. But he's the worst public speaker I've seen in politics for a very long time. He needs a speaking coach and some serious lessons and practice, then he could be dynamite.

I ... don't know... he's in the minority, with no usable power other than his voice. But he's holding the House Democrats together as a voting block. Seems like a whole lotta anti-Jefferies on line. I wonder why.

You’re not wrong, @thejackhopkins. We need more than manners and measured tones right now. We need leaders who understand that we’re in a fight for democracy and act like it. We need leaders with fire in their belly.

Exactly. People who can just naturally command a room--people who are leaders whether they have the title or not because we want to follow them.

He's great. So great that AIPAC paid him $866.425 between 2023-24: www.opensecrets.org/members-of-c...

He may be generally " nice" , but he's in AIPACs pocket and his lack of willingness to commit to the clear nominee means he needs to get the fvck out of the way.

Maybe he is keeping his powder dry. Republicans control the House, the Senate, and the Presidency. He doesn't have the votes.

But he’s not going to get the votes if he cannot inspire people to vote for the democrats. He needs to show the fire in his belly every time he is on camera.

He's already elected. He won't "inspire" Republican congress people. I'm talking congress votes, and Republicans are the majority and they will not vote for anything that Dems want.
jul 16, 2025, 1:30 am • 0 0 • view
The democrats are trying to flip the house next year. Jeffries needs to inspire voters to make this happen. He is never going to get any republican vote in the house if we don’t flip the house.
jul 16, 2025, 2:03 am • 0 0 • view
That has nothing to do with the criticism that currently elected Democrats, like Jeffries, are getting *now*. Voters need to get their heads out of their asses and vote for people who are not felons, racists, alleged pedophiles and in politics only for themselves.

Nothing nice about blocking up the halls of power from those who actually can or want to do good. He’d be nice if the extent of his influence was a small town. When you reach the top nationally the absence of malice is no longer nice

They are but GOP men do not value women so they are not listening to them as great as they are. We need men in our party to face off. Raskin, Whitehouse, Booker have been very vocal. We need the young guys to step up! Reality we need them all to speak out daily!

The GOP doesn't listen to anyone. You know who listens when someone fights back? The voters. Women would make a difference. This comment of yours is very troubling.

Well I guess I have spent my life with men that didn’t listen to women. I believe if women were in charge the world would be better. My own personal reality is they don’t listen to women. I would love nothing more than to be completely wrong just my own view. Not meant to be troubling for you.

Ya know - that was my opinion when I was in the military. Not all men, but some, wanted the experience of fighting in combat. They got all giddy when there was a dust up in Panama and we were on standby to deploy. The women - why???? There had to b other solutions than fighting.

I grew up in a very male dominant chauvinistic house. My mom was a very strong woman, but she too was suppressed at times. I made them listen. I turned out very independent amd strong. Gummy thing, it was my dad that taught me to always fight for right, and I did. Women can be heard.

Its up to women to fight and change this! Thinking we need men on order for people to listen is losing the battle. I'm not saying men shouldn't fight, they need to bring the women to fight too.
