I wish more people would be aware of this important point of view, Bill. I've just shared this post on Facebook. Thanks.

Thank you. Why can't we empathize more and demonize less? Especially when by welcoming others we would improve the economy and save our social programs?

WE empathize. The 30% who are MAGAts do not and have been too brainwashed by Faux News and other radically right-wing media platforms to reach with facts and data. It's the Independents and the youth we must reach. If we lose the trifecta or hold onto just the Senate in November 2024, we will lose our democracy, and our economy will crash and our social programs will be gone. This is a terribly perilous time, Bill, but there are many organizations and individuals who are working very hard to make sure our democracy will be protected. We must join them in person, virtually and/or financially as much as we can.

Yes! My focus has been on the youth vote. I'm impressed by and support turnup.us. But you are so right. So much to do!
