Dear American voter, maybe if you gave the Democrats power in Congress

you wouldn't be so disappointed (as various polls are showing) and they would be doing something.
But in you ignorance and prejudice, you not only made Trump President (which you now regret), you voted for him to have no checks on his power.
Because far too many of you don't have the slightest idea how Government works or what the Parties stand for.
I have little faith you will ever learn.

This isn't your Dad's Democratic Party and it actually sad...

The Party of 2026 is less populist, wealthier and carries greater biases.

Populism isn't a dirty word... progressive populism is traditional Democratic policy.

Then they say we need oversight so they vote for the house or senate to be republican.

This country needs to vote out Republicans for the next 40 years to punish them for their abuse of the American people.
