271. There have always been those who don't vote...if you are implying that it has to do with our message

Mon Dec 4, 2017, 08:31 AM

Dec 2017

or our party, it doesn't...the far far left is a problem (Greens =stupid people)...when Gore ran we got Bush who enacted United, started two wars, killed thousands of POC during Katrina and caused and economic debacle. Now they gifted us Trump who is now packing the court with righty judges...all the courts. This will have a chilling effect on the progressive agenda for decades no matter who is elected,pushed through a horrible tax cut that will hurt the poor and the middle class...and now they turn their attention to Social Security, medicare and medicaid. Chip is now defunct and thousands of children will die. It took care of many really sick kids. Those who were involved in Trump's election...by not voting, spreading lies about Hillary Clinton (Russian lies and right wing smears),voting for Trump, voting for Stein (same as voting for Trump)...should be deeply ashamed. They literally have blood on their hands...as far as I am concerned such folks who enabled Trump are no better than those Alabama voters apparently about to put Roy Moore in office.
