When the fuck is the Democratic Party gonna put it's focus [View all]

on US, we, the PEOPLE of the United States of America? Every damned day all I hear from Democrats is Trump, Manafort, Page, Flynn, Hillary, Bernie, Elizabeth, Kamala, gripe gripe gripe gripe gripe gripe gripe gripe. Here I am right now griping about all the griping!!

When the fuck are we gonna start talking about jobs, wages, education, healthcare, infrastructure, peace, the planet...you know, the things that really MATTER every fucking day of the year?

Let Mueller do his job. Quit rehashing the fucking primaries. There is not one fucking politician that we elect who can fix what is wrong with America. Only WE THE PEOPLE can do that working together with one another. And we are not doing it.

This country is so fucked.
