    She’s doing exactly what the party can, which is not much. This is what we’d want the GOP to be able to do if their felon rapist candidate lost.

    Aside from grandstanding for 25 hours to remove a white bigot’s name from the record (if he was still a bigot when he made that record; he evolved as a person over time) and talking about stuff, Rep Booker did nothing substantive. Be clear on that as just some performance art.

    There is a lot of work to be done, but admitting a few things is important to establish where we are:

    • voting third party was just what Russia paid for and worked well for them but not America
    • gerrymandering was huge
    • Dems are hogtied. Stop expecting salvation from the people America resoundingly fired.
    • not voting an accomplished prosecutor and experienced leader, over a felon with no ability (at anything), is 100% the fault of voters

    Start from a position of honesty.
