    This is what Democrats need. For the younger generations to be the adults in the room. It’s been time for it a over a decade ago. They should have been preparing lines of succession during the Obama era.

      It’s pointless posturing. Thanks to people not turning out to vote in 2022, the Republicans control the House. They’re not going to support this.

        Kinda tired of this take. Corporations and the billionaires who control them have captured our democracy and they’re not going to support this either. But sure, darn those hypothetical and inevitably too-leftist non-voters!

          Corporations aren’t suddenly going to stop being evil. You can sit around and blame them all you want, but that’s not going to change anything.

          If a plane falls out of the sky, do you go around blaming gravity? It’s ultimately the cause, but doing so is pointless. Instead, you concentrate on the things that can be changed.

          Your own sources says that the 20% of people who voted in a previous election but not 2022 are mostly left leaning.

            It also says

            Citizens who did not vote in any of the three tilt Republican by 46% to 41%.

              Who cares about those? If they don’t ever vote, they don’t matter. If the same people who had voted in 2020 showed up in 2022, we wouldn’t be in the situation we’re in.
