Wishful thinking, but, with Democrats showing their cards by helping Republicans fund ICE who’ve been terrorizing Minnesota and murdering Americans. I can’t really say for certain that I’m going to be voting for them anymore in the future, their track record of holding corrupt people accountable has been atrocious. Stern wording is not what we want, we want to see impeachments, we want to see stubborness, we want to see actions that side with the people than self-interests.

Yet, that’s what we’re really seeing, is self-interests being practiced. No Democrat is going to own their mistakes either, just like Republicans won’t.

If there’s any other candidate in America who we can vote for, who? Because I’m tired of voting for Democrat who’ve proven that they only govern if it means making themselves look good than helping the public get in shape.

    First of all, it’s not wishful thinking. Second of all, many of us have been doing this for decades. And most importantly, if you only try to express power through your vote, then that will definitely not be good enough for real change. It’s incredibly important that you get out there and do other things at other times, however you reasonably can given your situation in life.

    There’s an old saying that everyone is equal on election day. Actually that’s not true because of gerrymandering and the Electoral College and disenfranchisement. But even if it were true, then everyone would not be equal the other 364 days of the year. Or non-election years. So don’t rely on voting to solve problems, but do it anyway.
