Everything was fine up until the debate. And that's the reason? That really undermines confidence in the ability to think in terms of political reality of the leadership of this party. Either they are guilty of gross ignorance, or there's been something else going on that no one has been talking about until now.
You are right. Anger isn't the best way to rebuild party support. But the manner in which this has been handled is responsible for the anger. There are a lot of people out here, myself included, who have invested a considerable amount of time, money and energy into Biden's re-election. We believe that Trump is the existential threat to democracy that our party leaders have said he is, in unanimous chorus. But now they want to treat us like we're unimportant, while a few oligarchs who are friend with some deep pockets give us a new theme to which we are supposed to commit.
My contribution may not amount to more than a couple thousand dollars over a two year period of time when this is all over. I don't hold an elected office. But I've put in between 20 and 30 hours a quarter in volunteer time since 2016. And I think my opinion should count, not just a handful of elected officials and a few big donors.
And I'm saying, from what I'm seeing. If this doesn't get handled in a way that assures us all we are on the same page and all of our best interests are considered, we will lose this.
