Dear Charlie, I've been listening to you since 2015 and I'm grateful to you and the Bulwark for what you're doing. Last night I listened to you and Tom Nichols and I had to turn you off.

Dear Charlie, I've been listening to you since 2015 and I'm grateful to you and the Bulwark for what you're doing. Last night I listened to you and Tom Nichols and I had to turn you off. The dominant theme of your discussion was the lack of coalition by the Dems. I don't disagree but where are the Republicans? Last year I remember you, Tom, Sarah and JVL and other saying that Biden should focus on voting rights because Republicans could get on board with voting rights. You all agreed! You gave me hope at that time that maybe voting rights would pave the way for a political coalition to protect our votes and save our democracy. Where are they now? Where are those Republicans who you at the Bullwark were so sure would temporarily ally with Dems to protect voting rights? There aren't any. You talk about a lack of coalition in the Democratic party and I agree. They're exhausting but Republicans are the party of obstruction. They have been for 13 years. They obstructed healthcare and got nothing done on infrastructure because they do not coalesce on any idea coming from Democrats. They do not work in good faith on any issue not matter how important it is and even when it comes to saving our democracy. I'm losing faith.
