Have to confess many in the base/grassroots have failed to do what I’ve been encouraging them to do the last decade or so: make a party a creature of your own creation. A party is what people say it is, and the people who say what it is are the ones who win primaries. . .
And show up and conventions. But that takes real, systematic work and discipline, along with a certain amount of endurance. So don’t bitch and moan because you left those things undone which you should have done. The best time to have done this work was ten years ago. . .
The next best time to do it? January 6, 2021. So if it feels like you’re getting served up a crap sandwich in GA Senate races, feeling betrayed by people, how about you do this: look in the mirror, realize you’re absolutely a part of the problem & commit to doing everything. . .
You can starting in January to never let this happen again. The GOP is ripe for the taking by America First types IF they will do the work of running in primaries, running for precinct chairs, showing up at conventions, etc.
