    Right? The democracts need to stop being the “not as bad” party and start being the “actually good for people” party if they want people to vote for them.

      So, you’ll not vote Democrat because they didn’t have enough seats to accomplish the goals you expect of them because they didn’t get enough votes in the midterms? Do you see the circular logic here?

        not because of seats no

        Democrats will not even come out and publicly demand and shout for living wages, universal healthcare, or anything that citizens need other than some mumbling lip service that get maybe a minute of airtime

        the most heard from Democrats is ‘I am not Trump.’ and ‘You have to vote Democrat we are not Trump.’

        not voting for either party btw because not allowed to vote due to bipartisan politics taking my vote away
