John, Democrats need more voters.

I've said it before, but if Democrats get back a local presence across America. If they have more conversations with people who disagree with them it will serve them well. They make the mistake of continually taking local issues and making them national. For the most part (apart from financing) leave education, housing and even health to the local levels.

The "We know best" stuff from many on the left is best dropped. It does not win folks over. Elizabeth Warren proved this point -- and no one wanted to vote for her apart from nerds at the New York Times. There are good reasons for humility. One is that not all ideas coming from the left are great.

The $15 per hour and relief of student loan debt are examples of poor solutions to serious problems. Continually beating up on billionaires makes zero sense. They don't take money out of our pockets.

Where is Democratic for eliminating the Trump era tariffs on goods from China? That would help all across the country by lowering inflation by an estimated 1 1/2%. Some from under the bus.

Many thanks. Best to you.
