      I just started here so I do not have a baseline, but I do aggressively pick fights on this issue because I want to see us field a slate of candidates that can take the country back before a permanent fix is into tight. An exercise in futility apparently as influence agents and the dupes of the establishment apparently have convinced people to leave the same Aristocrats in charge of the opposition.

      It defies reason, we need a new deal and reform not plutocratic rot led by unpopular sold out candidates hand-picked by donors. The candidates still thinking they are playing good cop to Republican bad cop in 1990 even while the Republicans have openly been playing Hitler.

      2020 was a gift, even with Biden being unpopular we could have dismantled the part of the party that tried to overthrow democracy and install an autocracy.

      Yet we allowed the president to do nothing, to say nothing, to allow our captured federal agencies to fail in their statutory duties without challenge, including the justice department. To let the courts let it happen without rallying the population to pressure them.

      To be at 40% popularity for 3 years and not change anything. Then annoint someone at 30% approval the entire term without challeng. Not a single Challenger for leader, or for house or Senate leadership. The party is broken.
