Platkin: They didn’t go to the mat to make sure people could eat. They didn’t go to the mat to make sure people could afford their health care. But they sure as hell made sure they could make hundreds of thousands of dollars on our backs based on some bogus theory of how they were harmed.

Dems backed Trump into a corner where he’s advocating for starving Americans and hemorrhaging support. If they vote to let him off the hook in exchange for nothing it’s a cataclysmic failure. I know people are in pain but insulating Republicans from political consequences is not the answer.

Just to note, there is a well documented connection between mass in-person protest and election outcomes. I'm looking forward to the academic papers analyzing No Kings in October and turnout today.
No one should ignore or discount the significant effect that all the organizers of the NO KINGS rallies have had on this election night. It is monumental the influence you have had on this night.

Protecting people's health care is worth fighting for. Stopping our health care system from going into a death spiral is worth fighting for. People want Democrats to stand for something.
