You all make me want to move to Canada. If schoolyard shouting matches and aggressive bros are the only game in the country, please tell me how to get out of here.

Canada has a PM who is strategic, smart, civil, and he wins.

congressional democrats are mostly craven cowards - dems lose because no one respects spineless folks - and they've proven to be over & over. Yes, messaging has sucked the last decade but the real problem is dems don't fight - so they get no respect & no trust bevause apparenlty they don't believe in much except money, and talking.

Where is the marketing for Democrats when we create jobs, forgive student loans, expand Medicaid, provide SNAP benefits for kids in rural and urban schools and save rural hospitals? There’s more but where is our advertising? Why isn’t it constant? True, we come out by the millions to say we don’t want a king but what do we want and how does it serve the people?

It's not just with jobs that Democratic presidents have done better than Republican presidents. I asked ChatGPT to evaluate, rank, and provide sources to justify the ranking for all the presidents since Carter in several categories, including improving the economy overall, but also initiatives that helped or hindered the middle class, the poor, the ultra-rich, education, etc. Hands down, the Democrats won (except in making rich people richer - Reagan took that one). I wonder how many people know this?
