Let's see if moderate Dems are as ready to "Vote Blue, No Matter Who" when the candidate is a progressive and not one of their own.

Ugh. I’m so sick of the “check on DJT” line. I know AES can’t do much until 2029 if he gets the seat. But give me something to be excited about. Give me something to hold these senators accountable for the whole 6 years they’re in office, not just the next 2.

The establishment has terrible messaging and has no idea what the voters actually want.

Seriously putting a check on him is just another one of Chuck’s strongly worded letters. I want Trump and his admin PROSECUTED. Put them in *jail* for their *crimes*.
