14. How many times have we been told, over the last 30 plus years

Whenever we cave to Republicans or give them a bit of what they want or formulate plans that give up a bit of our goals just so they can be perceived as bipartisan...how many times have we been told our outrage is misplaced? How many times have we been told we just don't understand the system?

Well folks, playing a compromising game with a dishonest opponent who care little for anything other than power has landed us right where we are in this moment.

If these so called political experts are correct, I'll gladly eat my words, but history doesn't bode well for compromise with authoritarians and, make no mistake , that's what we are dealing with presently.


People, the people of this country, are outraged...they are crying out for leadership & for signs of resistance from their elected officials. This isn't it
