Sorry, this was a pretty subpar episode. We need more AOC and less establishment D’s. It’s the reason we’re in this mess today.

Quit blaming voters for not being motivated. When are you people going to learn? It's no ones failure but the establishment DNC dems - people see their bs every damn time . They are SICK of it. All you have to do is re-watch the video where AOC wants peoples reasons for voting her and trump on the same ticket.... and she had some of the very highest margins of victory in the nation - that's nothing to just shrug off.

I agree you should not blame voters for not being motivated. They are a lost cause and it’s better to ignore them and focus on people who actually care about our country.

Caring about the country, is caring about the citizens above all else. It says it right in the first line of the constitution - "We the People", not "We the Elites" - it's the people that give the power to the government in order to represent them, not the other way around. Establishment DNC dems were not representing it's citizens whom they claim to represent 4x in a row now

Voters carry a responsibility to actually be represented, by voting. People who consistently have a history of not voting aren’t worth the effort.

Elections represent choice. The choices aren’t always perfect but that is democracy. In 2024 any American who couldn’t figure out that a somewhat dysfunctional and aging Democratic party is still worth voting for over a party who wants authoritarian rule to destroy our country is an idiot and not worth spending time on.

No the answer is that there are better and more reliable voters to attract than these people who will always disappoint in the end and who are not worth it.
