…and the cynic in me thinks that maybe this is actually the point of it all. Make “the US” a depressed asset to scoop up for cheap by those with means.

Communally do absolutely nothing. Not a word, a clap, nothing. Just sit in silence. Protest their screaming by not reacting at all. Don’t talk to them or the press before, or even after.

Your silence can be deafening if all D’s do so.

(Bonus points for wearing blue and yellow. )

I’m begging you to see the whole picture, not just who has “earned it” by their party allegiance. Get out of the metro, hit the second ring burbs; find real candidates who can win here for once. Hire actual marketing people for campaigns, not political people. Sell the message to the middle. NOW.

If that unfolds, hopefully Aric Putnam will step up and run as his opponent. Downstream then, I’d imagine Mayor Heineman of Ramsey would run for the state house seat vacated by Niska...

Because Emmer belongs in the 1960’s, not in the US Senate….And, his CD6 seat might get filled by State Rep Niska, the new darling of the state house who keeps getting pushed farther right by the party. He’s smart, speaks well, and has won easily in his district….

It’ll have to be someone special- fierce but not “extreme”, a realist who can stand up to a bully, someone who can talk plainly. Someone you don’t want to mess with not by what they scream, but how they hold silence and their resilience. Someone who speaks and wins back the middle class. Why?
