This guy is spot on, Democrats have been complacent and we need to begin now and we need to toot our own horn in everything we do!

The people want the Dems to fight. But the old order in Congress have not done it yet.

Beto is the best. I'm an ex Texan and we always support him and everything he does. He's a great guy and hopefully will see him more again in the future.

To make the US a true democracy, get rid of:

1. The electoral college

2. Gerrymandering

3. Lobbyists

4. Corporate political donations and interference.

5. No stock trading, no gifts

The Democrats don’t seem to care about Americans either. They are just as corrupt as the Republicans with the monies they get from. Oligarchs. Did you know that Hakeem Jeffries received over a million dollars from AIPAC, Israel’s lobbyist. A Democrat in my district in Florida received over $650,000.00 from AIPAC!!!! I haven’t even looked up other donations they received. That’s only from AIPAC. Sometimes I wonder if the Dems did win the house back, WOULD THEY IMPEACH AND CONVICT TRUMP? I’m not sure they would do this. Most Americans want this!!!The Oligarch’s like Trump in the White House because he doesn’t put regulations on their business and gives them tax breaks. I don’t think the Democrats want to help Americans either. After all, they are making much more money than the salaries we pay them. Our whole political party needs an overhaul!!! I don’t trust anyone anymore!!!!

Aye right there Sheila ! And, in my opinion it really does come down to djt simply being the poster boy for corporate America, the 1%ers, the oligarchs of lore(~100years ago), now hiding behind corporate laws, corporate structure and CITIZENS UNITED ! CU which we hear less and less about as our democracy morphs into a corptocracy. No one pays much heed to the likes of Senator Sanders and his spot on warning of UNFETTERED CAPITALISM NOT WORKING ! ! IT IS AT THE CRUX of the buying, selling and blatantly overt, ipso facto corruption now fatally infecting our government ! Until CU is recinded. Until corporate citizenship and their unfettered access to, and their buying, selling and corruption of our elected officials ENDS, this, these and those issues will go on and on and on ! We truely are at a stark and critical crossroads in our history, governance, viability and future existence as a nation and people."Without the occasional revolution a democracy dies." So said Thomas Jefferson. Our's now seems unlikely. Yet now long, long overdue !

First Of All Those Donation From Israeli ! Is Out Loyalty !! They Know Exactly What Party Is Responsible For Funding Their Defense !! And It's Not Republicans !? Israel Should Replaced Their Leader Year's Ago ! That Guy Is Going The Way Of The Doe- Doe !!? Like Trump !!? Also ! Now Is Not The Time ! To Overhaul A political Party ! When You're At War With Another Party ! That's 5 Time's Worse !? That Type Of Reform Has To Be Unilaterally Done !! Which The New Republicans Surely Won't Do Now If Ever !!? In My Opinion There Party Is Dead !!? And Should Be Removed From Congress !!? No More Republicans !!? Ever !? They Have Turned There Back’s On ALL ! And Everything !! American !!

I've been screaming for years that the Dems need to have more courage and fight back against Trump and the GOP. It has not happened yet!
