My congressman is actually better at speaking than her but, but he never gets attention because he doesn’t spend all his money self promoting on billionaire platforms. He’s also got a lot more done

Can't we all get along. I like my congressman too. We need everybody doing what she was doing. (And at the time, she was getting record breaking crowds in places like Arizona and Colorado.) We need each and every representative taking the public battle to Trump. NO to circular firing squads.

I’m in a swing district and the Socialist hurt us more than help us. Crowds at rallies are meaningless. Beto had huge crowds too

Yes, and Beto is doing great work in Texas. That's where I have lived all my life.

I was a state convention delegate in 1972 at age 18. For many years many voters were identified as non-presidential Dems. Carter was the last Dem presidential candidate to win the state. Despite this history, the demographics of Texas eventually will support it as a blue or purple state.
