42. You won't get medicare for all at the moment...try saving the ACA that will

mean something to voters. You won't get a $15.00 minimum with Trump...you won't get free college with Trump and he needs to release his tax returns because he is selling out this country for a few measly rubles...try working on special elections, 18 and then 20...criticize Trump not the Democrats who are our only means of stopping Trump. The Russians made a successful attempt to divide the Democratic Party and succeeded in large part...but even with Comey, the primary, the Russians...we barely lost...and we will win next time. The idea that we need to remake our party over a close election is nonsense. 2016 is over...now we fight to save this country from Trump...all hands on deck. It is not time to remake the Democratic Party which seems kind of arbitrary anyway...I mean a pro-life candidate is OK but someone John Lewis (a hero to me) supports is not? All Democratic candidates deserve support from Democrats and Democratic allies. You want to get all the goodies described above...elect democrats. I was watching a program that showed a map of congressional districts and how they behaved during 16, we have the best chance in years to take back the House...let's not blow it.

It just keeps escalating. NCTraveler Apr 2017 #1
