What I wish more would realize [View all]

is that Democrats are very brave. Pundits always talk about all the pressures Republicans have and why they can't stand up to Trump. Worried about mean tweet, less donors, criticism, threats of violence. But brave men and women who are Democrats continue to face the threats. Democrats get death threats, have to move location, get threatened by donors, and face down Trump threats to release damaging information.

I'm so proud of our Representatives and House managers from this impeachment and the last one. I'm so proud of the Michigan Governor, the Pennsylvania elected Dems who faced down the threat and prevailed.

Our party is filled with brave patriots and heroes!!
