(6,527 posts)Its wonderful that you feel as you do. Others have, like myself, some big and little issues we base our disappointments on - and some big and little things we go to battle for or not. Being condescending and dismissive of fellow Democrats who dont accept things as you do is really sad. Personally, for me, Schumer and to a lesser extent Jeffries have been a disappointment on the big issues that I feel are important to me. And since our government is supposed to work for us, those who feel disappointed or those who would like a change in leadership, have every right to express those feelings. To want more from our elected officials is healthy. To want better from our government is very much the essence of democracy. Pushing for better ideas, better plans, better advocacy isnt being disloyal. Its being engaged. Discussing in a message board reasons for being disappointed is not disloyal. Its not voting Republican. Its discussion and its healthy.
I dont care if you are happy with the choices they are making for you. You are happy. Thats all that matters. Its your right to be content. I wouldnt presume to make fun of you for feeling as you do. And You really dont need to express your unhappiness ess for those that feel a different way. Those that are pushing for better just might also make things good for you too.
