I have two words for the national Democrats.
Well, those would work, yes.
But also.
Opposition. Party.
The other side gets it.
'Standing up doesn't work' and other milquetoastery mealy-mouthed quislingisms are NOT the message for this era.

Book 190 📚 for 2025. Not only are the reviews of the books, recently published in various media, well written by one of America's leading historians, it's encouraged me (at least) to seek out several of the books themselves. It's a solid read. Available everywhere, including your local library.
