Starting to feel like this country is un-fixable... Maybe a better word would be irredeemable

I'm going to go with the conviction that redemption is for individuals and reform and repair is for countries. The country CAN be fixed, if WE ourselves are sufficiently committed to the work required to do so.

I had the same thought this morning upon hearing about a poll that asked who Americans thought would be doing a better job so far, Trump or Harris:

Only 43% said Harris

45% said Trump

12% said they'd be doing about the same

I know it's just a poll, but fuck these people

Face it. The Democrats have to realize that most Americans are not going to accept a woman for President, especially not a woman of color, at this time. If you want to get rid of the fascist Trump agenda, run a strong, white, governor. I loved Obama and voted for him 3 times. But his election birthed the fascist tea party and MAGA.

If Obama ran right now he would easily win. ItтАЩs misogyny. America is a very misogynistic country and culture; especially

among many of the immigrant groups who have recently arrived. Add to this a level of mistrust among a large subset of Black voters toward Harris and that is why she lost.

Did you seriously come on here and blame immigrants & black people for something done mainly by white people?

I disagree the candiate has to be white, these folks were around during the Obama days.

What Democrats need to do

- Capitalizing on emerging media ; podcast, social media and whatever else.

- Connecting directly with the working class people.

- Bringing out the fangs and paws .
