When do you think the good news will start for us again?

I have to admit, the Supreme Court announcement feels like it massively shifted the hope and positivity we had. The previous week, we were all excited over the news of Manafort going to jail. It felt like a positive moment on our side.

This past week has just felt hopeless and full of despair; like this country can't be saved anymore. And we haven't had any bombshell stories about the Russia investigation to flip the narrative again.


How long do you think it will take to get some positive headlines and momentum for us again?

I volunteered a couple of weeks ago before our primary and the crowd was very small, very white and very old like me.
