59. I have a lot of hope

I think we can prevail in 2022.

So many repubs are dying of Covid.

McConnell pissed off Black Americans -- bad.

Michelle Obama will register 1 million people.

Biden will seat a Black woman on the Supreme Court.

We’ve reduced child poverty in this country by 40 percent.

We passed infrastructure.

There will be 34 Senate seats up for grabs; 20 are Republican. We have so many opportunities to flip seats, keep the majority and make Sinema and Manchin irrelevant.

This is not the time to grouse about the current political climate. It’s time to act. So let’s talk about real life issues, in plain language, to real people. We can still save our country. All hands on deck.

It will be hard. Really fucking hard. But we have to prevail. We did it in 2018. When we all vote we win.
