9. I have no problem criticizing Democrats when it's warranted but

asking why Congress's polls are down isn't helping. It exacerbates the situation. We failed them, somehow. We didn't vote. They need to change tactics. All Republicans are the enemy, until they're not. Especially in the Senate, they're not your friend from across the aisle. They smile in your face while stabbing you in the back. We wouldn't have the SC situation now if fights were fought harder back then. It's too late to write letters demanding anything. You don't have the power and that's our fault.
No matter who the party leaders are, they are going to get the blame but when you're back in power, don't be nice, make new rules, take out the trash.

The Felon has no shame but some of those feckless Republicans might still remember what integrity felt like, shame the f.ck out of them. Don't give them a shoulder to cry on. Shun them. Any Dem that doesn't row with the rest should be on that list as well. Stop talking just to hear yourself. Don't fake passion. It looks worse. Support those that are passionate and genuinely angry in their delivery. Does anybody question Bernie's sincerity?

Anyway, just a few thoughts.
