The Democrats lose because people with power and money make sure they can never run the people who would actually represent their base. “We can’t get young people to vote.” That’s because of the candidates you’re running, not because young people don’t want to vote. And we know, we can tell, you would never in a million years run candidates young people would vote for, because that’s not and never has been who you are or what you want. You would rather lose to insane criminals than allow the kind of change your base wants to actually have a chance of happening. Fuck you.

Guardedly optimistic. He won’t be able to do everything he wants to do, but dammit, we have to start somewhere.
