As a Democrat, it feels a little frustrating. We are a bit of a punching bag at the moment. We've lost sight of our values.
I feel like Rocky Balboa. We just got punched. We just got knocked down. We got knocked down really hard, and it hurts.
If there was ever a time, if there was ever an inflection point, it is now. So we've got a lot of work ahead of us.
It feels a little bit like we're all in a listless ship, kind of just spinning about.
