(#4951) Great things will happen for America when Democrats win the midterm elections

      Think about this. When we democrats got the house, senate, and presidency in 2020, we thought that the world was going to change dramatically because of all the policies we wanted to implement. Then we democrats got a rude awakening with manchin and sinema nixing our policies out of some unfathomable duty to the archaic discriminatory senate filibuster rule. All things looked bleak and the discouragement felt by our fellow liberal/progressives was akin to a gut punch. Well we were able to pass some of our legislation and that was very good however short sighted and watered down it was. But now we are poised to grow our senate majority to a point where voting the filibuster out is almost a done deal.
     So when we get our new democratic senators the votes will be only by majority, which is 51, not the current 60 vote threshold just to begin a debate on a bill. So with the senate shaping up nicely for a democratic enlargement, the house takes on a critical focus as well. We democrats currently have 9 more house seats than republicans do but with gerrymandering and too many corruptible state election laws in place the republicans are favored to retake the house in November. However, that model for the house being ripe for republican takeover is not formulated on the corruption of republicans nor their unfavorable policies of killing off freedoms and rights.
     So although Nancy Pelosi navigated passage of some great bills that were obstructed by most every republican senator and the aforementioned manchin and sinema, she has a lot of work cut out for her to somehow hold onto the House leadership. But if anyone can fight the good fight for democrats to hold the house it is Nancy Pelosi. The rest of us liberal/progressives must do our part in supporting house and senate campaigns and most importantly getting out our voters. There is a vast voting pool of eligible voters out there who haven't voted for whatever reason and getting the message out about how republicans are destroying our democracy while dismantling the rule of law for the wealthy, needs to be made to them so that they engage with their vote this coming November.
