Surrender avoided starvation among poor children.
Blame the flippers and skippers and other ignorant voters, not the outnumbered Dems who DID manage to get elected.

The "turncoats" are the Democratic flippers and skippers who prevent US from having enough Democratic legislators.
It's a numbers game, and we lost. Fetterman can't fix that.

The US has ¼ as many people as China but is the world's 2nd largest emitter of CO2. The world will suffer for our greed.

Consider the alternative, when Dems are outnumbered in Congress: shut down government, allowing the GOP to pick and choose who loses its support.
Have you ever needed SNAP to survive? I've starved -- before SNAP existed -- which might help explain why I ALWAYS vote Democratic.

Stop blaming the Dems who DID manage to get elected, and elect more of them!

Circular firing squads hurt US!
The only answer is to ELECT MORE DEMOCRATS. Remember when LBJ had supermajorities in both chambers?

Some wars can be won by leaders who have the fewest troops, but Congress is a war of attrition: Democrats are outnumbered, so they lose. All they can do is interfere with government, which benefits NO ONE.

Democratic leaders can't publicly focus on "socialist" policies.
Our electorate has been conditioned by the GOP's capitalist supporters to fear socialism -- without understanding that we thrive on a mixed economy, with commonly needed services and safety nets provided by government.

The GOP canceled SNAP to force outnumbered Democrats to surrender a battle they couldn't win anyway. Republicans are willing to starve children to avoid compromise.
Don't blame the Democratic leadership. Blame the ignorant and stupid voters who fail to elect enough Democrats.

Bernie is wrong. Stick together, Democrats!
The worst night was in November 2024 when voters failed to elect enough Democrats; Congress is a numbers game.
Now we must make large sacrifices to gain small concessions.

Now it's our turn to "pay it forward."
Raise taxes to reduce our massive deficits while maintaining the social services and safety nets built and reinforced by FDR, HST, LBJ, JEC, BHO, and JRB Jr. and unselfish public servants.
And NEVER "vote for a change" from the Party that serves US.
