Yes, we love Obama, Clinton, Harris. However, we are finding excuse for our beloved leaders who are MIA. They really are fucking MIA. That is a truth. It just does not matter how much can they swing. Well, if Obama and Michelle Obama go everywhere and give speeches warning the people, media will report and people will notice. That is very important to save the country. They cannot retire when their country is burning. They are not George Bush. Silence by Obamas is absolutely maddening. I always hated the fact Michelle Obama is so adamant about not wanting to run. How can she say, absolutely no way, when the country is burning? SHAMEFUL. ARENA OF PUBLIC OPINION IS STILL IMPORTANT. Dems cannot just come in and say vote in 2026. They will lose. That is, if there is an election. Don't count on it. Hello, rigged election.

Is it okay to say. I TOLD YOU SO. Yes. How are we going to bring stupid voters to their senses?
