Do we deserve better? Turnout in primary elections is typically under 25%. Adams ran as the 'anti-progressive' in 2021 & won against progressive Dems by ~7K votes. More than 2M registered Dems didn't vote. If we want better leaders then we need to be better citizens & vote. It's not complicated.

From 1917-1964, 28 cloture motions were introduced & it was invoked 5 times...never on a civil rights bill. Some senators, esp. from small states, opposed cloture motions on principle, viewing them as a “gag rule” to squelch debate. The 118th Senate invoked cloture 227 times. — US Senate website

Focus on getting the 2/3 of Americans who don't vote consistently to vote in local, state, primary, & midterm elections. If we fail to do that then we will need a generation of activism to undo the changes Trump will cement in place. Voting is what we should be talking about. Such a simple thing.
