      We got Trump because he wasn’t a beltway insider. Trump was able to sway independent voters simply because he wasn’t a career politician. Liberals, Greens, and progressives got tired of voting for moderate democrats who are ultimately conservative so they didn’t show up to vote.

      We all know democrats take their voters for granted. It’s almost like ppl will stop voting for you if they feel ignored. Which is exactly what happened. Maybe a few years of Trump might be the kick in the pants our representatives needed
