3. I agree 100% with Reid

We need to talk about Progressive and the plan to move America FORWARD again. Substance of the party platform. Single payer, saving and strengthening SS, Medicare, Medicaid and other safety nets. Protecting jobs from leaving the US. Tax reform for the middle class versus the 1% and corporations. Solid education and teacher pay.

Talking impeachment makes many of us happy and hopeful. But there are numerous people not that dialed in except what they are dealing with day to day. They want a message of hope. Not impeachment. We take back the House and maybe Senate...then let's do it!
