I am curious what people think about this advert. Not about Crockett herself or her run for Senate. Just about this as a campaign ad - Thumbs up? Thumbs down? Reviews. Notice how you’re feeling when you watch it what emotions does it inspire.

JD Vance is a fucking idiot. If his wife had a brain in her head, she'd secretly move out of their house with the kids while he's away on official Nazi business.

Gee, that's so weird... But it doesn't matter to MAGA, right? Neither does the fact that he's a child-raping pedophile.

This is post and the comments are so important. How can a few hundred elected representatives do this to their people? They “earn” $174K a year, have free healthcare, and allow themselves to invest in the stock market they write the rules for. When is enough enough?
My ACA current plan is going from $385/mo to $821/mo.

In 2006 a high school English teacher asked students to write to a famous author & ask for advice.
KURT VONNEGUT - born 103yrs ago today - was the only one to respond.
His reply was a doozy.

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.
