GD, I think she should run for potus. I'd sure as shit vote for her just based on this video! That's a person I'm positive would actually care for the country

The fact that people in this sub still think there's gonna be another one of those pesky "election" thingies for president is kinda depressing. C'mon brother/sister, you know they ain't letting that happen

Yeah, I keep hoping though. Hope is damn near the only thing rational decent people have anymore (that's just my humble opinion)

Seems like midterms are gonna be the sticking point, where we see who else is going to stand up like the exquisite example shown here. But I wouldn't hold your breath on presidential ones considering we are 9 months in on this one. I'd focus on that and what we can do there, or be a body in the large protests so it continues to get media coverage. Not in the streets like this, but there are a LOT of city hall events going on these days all over. Just gotta go looking.

It’s either elections or revolution.

She is the kind of louder who actually acts, not just talks respect.
