This. @mastermind you're right, but the motivation is completely gutted right now.

In the 2020 presidential election OH11 did the following:
Incumbent Marcia Fudge defeated Laverne Gore in the general election for U.S. House Ohio District 11 on November 3, 2020.



Candidate

Marcia Fudge (D)

Laverne Gore (R)

60,323 votes

In the primary Marcia Fudge hit 70,000 votes alone.

Today neither person broke 30k themselves. The left doesn't have a base because the guy responsible for building the base quit on us.

I hear you.

Thats why I’m saying we gotta build up. The motivation is we have a president that doesn’t give a fukk about the working class and the Dem leadership is that.

There is a case to be made and we gotta build. We gotta stop looking for hail
Mary wins and actually do ground work.

The problem with the left overall is that they talk tough but then once the get in the cage with the GOP, they get thrown around like rag dolls.
Their failure rate is daunting.
The left has very few real wins this century.
Obamacare was the last substantial win.
They cant even claim COVID-19 stimulus as a win.
Nothing on gun control
Nothing on income inequality
Nothing on police reform.
Nothing on housing.
Nothing on education reform, particularly the astronomical cost of secondary education for degrees that aren't profitable
Nothing on domestic terrorism
Nothing on taming rogue corporations
Nothing on inner city violence except "More police!", which is the opposite of a solution

People are tired of getting their hopes up and being let down, while being continually raped by corporate greed.
The only thing you got to look to is a lone congresswoman sleeping on the stairs of the Capitol in a grass roots style protest.

Progressives with wide eyes and loud voices alone aren't enough anymore to get the non-voter energized to get to the polls.
