Why do we always play nice while they get foreign help to steal elections, use massive voter suppression, block our presidencies at every turn?

1. Because that's who we are

2. And if we don't, they will scream to high heavens that we are the bad guys.

I think we can help here, but make damned sure that we keep reminding people of what a failure Donnie is and how he treated this "hoax" for months.

Winning is all that matters.

Let people starve. They'll blame Trump and we'll WIN!!!

figured the Democrats put partisan politics ahead of the well-being of Americans?

You're right in that it is not something Democrats have traditionally done like the GOP has.

But it could backfire big time.

Regardless, I don't think that is who Democrats are.

Take the high road.
