Alright, so Franken is out. Now what?

What we as Democratic voters don't do is let this sour us on what we have to do. We still have got to get out the same vote we did yesterday. We have to keep our heads and the heads of those around us calm and in the game. We are playing for the future of the planet and the other guys are ready and willing to flush it for a little bit of extra money

As for Schumer and co. you called for him to resign before the investigation and it looks like you got it. Now you are going to have to rally up and start digging in on the insanity of the Republicans in the exact fashion he did to make up for the loss. Not only that, but you better start smashing that nope button on every single person that deserves it. Starting with the president and that future flunky he's endorsing in Alabama.

I know it's tough when the other guy is willing to lie, cheat and steal, but discouragement and non-involvement is what got us here. We fight back, and keep fighting because all they want is for us to fall apart.

Which makes them Dems.

They'll cower in the corner as right-brained thuglicans stomp all over them.

NOT ONE CENT MORE TO DEMS. NOT ONE. I'M DONE.

I'll vote, but nothing more.

I think the tax bill will hurt the GOP but it will hurt innocent Americans way more.
