    Frankly I’m worn down by Trump eroding our rights every single day. But yeah I guess comments from online strangers is close 2nd for wearing on my mental fatigue. Bottom line is if you voted democrat, great idk what else you can do besides going above and beyond. I only blame non-voters, Trump-voters and people who voted 3rd party… everyone else, you’re all good to me. Hopefully we see some real change soon because I don’t see how much longer we can run this course.

      I am too, but on top of that I’m worn down much more by people blaming the group not in power (progressive voters) that was fighting for real change instead of blaming the group that was in power (the Democratic Party in general) and is in power (the Democratic Party in internal politics).

      I can’t do anything about Trump. I literally did everything I could against him, including voting for primary candidates that didn’t go on to lose against him. So when people like you tell me my opinion is only valid if I voted the right way, I seethe at the idea that you’re not blaming the people who actually have the power to put forward popular candidates but choose not to. You’re blaming and being dismissive and derisive to the wrong group. Your discourse in this thread is exactly what keeps the Democrats an ineffective opposition.
