We need warriors, champions, fighters to defend democracy, to protect America. Are there any Dems who can do more than simply tell us there are problems. We know Republicans have sold their souls to Trump/Musk, so it's up to others to preserve and protect our nation, our values, our way of life.

I'd love some ideas about specifically what the Dems can do. We have some folks (Sanders, Murphy, Jeffries, Crockett, Breshear, Pitzker, Warren, Slotkin, AOC and several others). These folks are articulate and vocal. They are saying everything that needs to be said. Do we "just" need more of them to be speaking out loudly in red/purple states? I'd like to see Dems holding town meetings in red areas, especially those where the maga Members of Congress are following the directive to not hold them. But what else should/could we be doing? What can I suggest to Ken Martin that he/we be doing?

Specifically what Dems can do: stop catering to their progressive fringe groups and listen to what every-day Americans want. Craft real policies on how to achieve these goals, rather than spewing fuzzy language about "hope" and "progress." Admit Biden/Harris made real mistakes when it comes to the border and immigration. Stop the nonsense that "a rising tide lifts all boats." Abandon the idea that it is time for a particular candidate to be the nominee because of length of service. Put up the most electable candidate, not the legacy or aspirational one. Et cetera.
