Elijah Manley was still a teenager when his frustration with President Trump pushed him to get involved in politics. Today, he’s finally old enough to run for Congress. Upset with how his own Democratic Party is responding to Trump, he’s decided to do just that.

        Yeah, the “leftists” in some places can’t bring themselves to support any Democrat. Some can’t even support democratic elections. They call Democrats “libs” and hate them for not fixing all problems. And they spent a lot of time and capital grinding their views prior to the 2024 election. Since then they’ve been quieter, but I expect that to change the closer we get to midterms.

        It’s really weird.

          If you think the DNC actually cares about you or wants to solve your problems then I have a Medicare for all to sell you.
