Democrats need to form a cohesive message. I know everyone is different but there are issues that should resonate with the politicians and the voters — like eliminating Citizens United to return the power to the people. They need a hardcore plan to attack corruption of politicians and corporations.

You don't seem like a both sides person. Biden administration really tried to deliver everything voters said they wanted. 98% of elected Democrats supported it. Only the two rich traitors to our party blocked it, oh, and EVERY single Republican voted against doing any of this.

Let’s be real. Kinzinger gave up his seat, came to the DNC convention, and campaigned for Harris. He sometimes posts stuff that I don’t agree or think might be unhelpful, but it’s not fair to call him a chaos agent or to say that he helped Trump get elected.

Let’s be real.. he voted with a rapist felon 90% of the time when he was in office. Even though he voted against him during the impeachment, he said he regretted it! So chaos agent fits him. He isn’t helping voters or Dems cause he was in line with the felon rapist when he was in office.

America is so 50/50 it’s vital to hear those from the other side that speak with sincerity. Refusal to do so is what keeps it tenuous. Democrats are fraidy-cats when it comes messaging. For example, Health care but kind of not for all isn’t messaging, it’s fence sitting. Excites no one.
