Halfway through November and I'm on pace to tie my record for most wins in a month. Very little margin for error though.

Schumer led Senate Democrats in fighting Trump over healthcare, period.
If you think Senate leaders can control members of their caucus, you don’t know much about the Senate. And before you say “McConnell,” remember why we still have the ACA when Trump and McConnell wanted it gone.

Lots of people who have worked on campaigns are replying and quoting with confirmation from their own experience,
And a few replying and quoting who are furious but keep coming up empty when I ask for examples of any time boycotting an election got people what they wanted.
Because there are none.

When I explain that boycotting an election over an issue has never once forced a politician to embrace that issue, I'm not "scolding people to vote." I'm explaining reality.
Feel free to sit on your ass! Just don't pretend that your lazy apathy is somehow going to advance your agenda.

If you boycott elections, candidates logically ignore you and focus on the voters they can still get.
There’s a reason pundits keep nudging Dems to a mushy middle. Those folks are idiots, yes, but they’re idiots who show up to vote.
And that matters more to a candidate than your smart apathy.

‼️CONFIRMED: Nearly 7 million people turned out for No Kings today.
With more than 2,700 lawful and peaceful protests across all 50 states, today’s mobilization was 14 times larger than both of Trump’s presidential inaugurations combined, marking a historic moment of unity and resistance.
