Trump & the Republicans are on the rise and we warned about it

said I was either a pessimist, a person unable to read the real sentiment of the country, or I was creating disagreement among Democrats. No. I feared that Democrats thought they were going to coast to victory. I knew that unseen to most, the dollars of the plutocracy was at work distributing false narratives directly to Americans while circumventing the noise on cable news. It does us no good pulling the wool over our heads. We must be proactive. Politics is a full-contact sport that never ends. We as Democrats must learn this and not coast when we think we have the wind at our back. A front could reverse the direction on a dime.

You are making assumptions that current reality actually invalidates. It's not the first time you have done so. You most egregious was when you went full Trump. Talking about him in a positive manner and how he was going to bring us single payer.

Reality.

"said I was either a pessimist, a person unable to read the real sentiment of the country, or I was creating disagreement among Democrats."

Your simply wrong and a bomb thrower. What you are doing is what it looks like when someone is desperate for clicks.
