This is appalling.

US consumer confidence is at the lowest level since 1951.

Very proud of my fellow Bucks County voters. We stood together and told the country we aren't putting up with the nonsense anymore. We swept all the local line offices and most of the local school boards. And that doesn't even count the retention state-wide of our Supreme Court justices.

If your idea of fighting for democracy is condemning people who post the truth about our leadesrhip, telling them, "Stop dividing our party!," rather that calling your represenatives...every day...and keeping your foot in their ass for every step they take for the next year.. your strategy sucks.
