19. Jefferies means well but

he talks too much like a politician and not a normal guy so he always seems like he's trying to dodge serious questions.

I understood him to say that there is a lot on his plate with the budget fight right now and that that is a fight that Dems in the house can actually do somehting whereas all the other voter demands, while important, may not affect things as fast.

When the government shuts down in March there will be plenty of time to go out and protest by dem house members.

Taken along with Carvilles strategy to play "rope a dope" it makes some sense and I am willing to give them more rope right now.

I think we need to allow the maga repubs to shut the goverment down then we can demand more from dems who will not be stuck in Washington.

The Senate has more tools and Schumer is the real problem there. I think that is where we should focus our anger.
