Look it’s no secret that I was a full fledged supporter of @CoryBooker in this race. He’s my senator, I’ve known him since his mayoral campaigns and I firmly believe he is the person to move us beyond #Trumpism so yeah I’m sad and upset right now,
But my heart is troubled today because I worry we are not as well poised to defeat @realDonaldTrump because we have lost many excellent candidates due to a combo of a bad plan re: #DemDebates and the outsized influence of money. The only reason @TomSteyer is still in is $$$
Millions of campaign ads got him the name recognition he needed. We should have let candidates on the debate stage through #Iowa and #NH and let VOTERS decide who is viable. Instead we have a small field and a white one. @CoryBooker was my top choice,
I also liked @KamalaHarris and @JulianCastro and they are both out of the race thanks in part to @TheDemocrats procedural decisions. (Yes and because $$ too) and I’m queasy because I’m worried we are making easier for Trump and his GOP sycophants to win.
So, dammit, I will still bust my butt to help the Democratic nominee win and Dems to take back the senate because everything depends on it. America is at stake. I’m just even angrier than I was before ( didn’t think that was possible).
