Dancing With The Duds
Step Out To Get Votes
Hi All! Democrats dance with danger and sing about the importance of democracy. In practical terms, though, the Democratic Party is moribund. Dem pols, our reps, have a vested interest in staying in power, and it isn’t you, or the issues we’re overwhelmingly in favor of–gun control, Medicare For All, the right to clean air and water, quality education, protection of personal data, voting rights, racial equality, and the ERA–would have been legislated and codified already. We have Indivisible and various and sundry organizations and activists across the nation you’ve never heard of on our side.* Yet, they’re our only hope today. Search Democratic think tanks, hit search assist, and weep.
Republicans have a disease called conservatism, and they have a coordinated, well-funded St. Vitus Dance.** They need therapy. Instead, they have the present toxic administration,The Heritage Foundation, The Federalist Society, SCOTUS, X, Truth Social, Turning Point USA, Moms for Liberty, and on and on.
Every single person I know expresses dismay, fear, and anger about what the present administration is doing to our country. I’m sure the hundreds on my mailing list who came to two No Kings feel so, as well. Yet, I see almost none of you at rallies and, at present, rallies are our most powerful means of changing hearts and minds. What are you waiting for? You might be mad as hell, but you sure as hell are taking it.
Every single one of us cares about saving our country. Our persistent presence is the most powerful weapon we have, and you are not using it. Take your most powerful action or let me know what’s a better option. I could use your help.
Know a salvageable Republican? Go to leavingmaga.org and Leaving Maga on YouTube for talking points and refer them to those resources. Get out on the street and influence many. Go to a rally every week and get that many more people. Start your own rally and spread the influence. I’ll help you. People in general are still largely unaware. You can wake them up and get their votes.
If you can’t stand, bring a chair. If you’re afraid to show your face, have you forgotten that you live in “the home of the brave”? Fortune favors the brave. Fear is not what founded America and the fight for liberty and justice for all.
We have 14 weeks to win the midterms, and we need a landslide that will tilt the axis of power to refute election fraud claims.
The most underrated skill in life is to keep showing up, especially when you don’t feel like it.

**St. Vitus’ Dance is an historical term for Sydenham’s chorea, a neurological disorder characterized by rapid, uncoordinated jerking movements, primarily affecting children after a streptococcal infection. It was named after Saint Vitus, the patron saint of dancers, and is associated with mass hysteria phenomena in medieval Europe.
