I’m more hopeful than ever to see that Democrats are concerned about preserving democracy, with abortion rights second. We must get complacent even if it looks like we are ahead. (And Cheney doesn’t support voting either.)
You are right. We CANNOT become complacent. With gas prices and inflation going down, the Republicans are going to double down on lies and culture wars, and trying to cheat during the elections. Thank you for commenting!
Agree 💯 with everything you wrote. I applaud Liz Cheney’s integrity and willingness to sacrifice her political career to challenge Trump’s lies, but the policies she has supported and statements she has made about Democrats should not be forgotten.
I also fear that if she does run for President (as an Independent; there’s no way she’d get the Republican nomination and I certainly hope most Democrats wouldn’t choose her), moderates that would have voted for the Democratic nominee will vote for her instead.
That would probably enable whichever right-wing extremist is the Republican candidate to win.
Hi Wendi: You are quite right above Liz. She did what she was supposed to do, even if it meant she lost her seat. But otherwise, she's as far-right as they come. We have to remind Dems of that over and over and over.
Teachers are professionals and should be treated and paid as such. Republicans just want ignorance
So very true. Thank you for commenting!
