I'm reading various news articles online and it's so damn annoying that most sources paint articles about Democrats in a [View all]

negative light.

Meanwhile the con artist is underwater in his ratings, his policies and positions are undewater, the economy is bad, food, housing and gas are too high, people are going without healthcare, children have lost food assistance and he's obsessing over the reflecting pool and his fair.

The news sources say the MAGA party will attack Democrats on socialism, immigration and Israel's war on Gaza. ICE is not popular. It's very unpopular. ICE has killed people in the street. Netanyahu's war in very unpopular. Netanyahu is probably going to be out of power in the fall. And they've been calling all Democrats socialist my entire life.

All Democratic candidates, whether they align with DSA or are more moderate in their beliefs have been running on kitchen table issues and affordability. MAGA is still running on bullshit, fear and bigotry.

It would be nice if the media would cover these realities with honest journalism. Who do they think they're kidding.

Republicans are the ones who are worried about the midterms. And they should be. They are inept, out of touch and ridiculous. And the people are not happy with them.
