lack requisite courage to face bullies of the their own social and racial class. Maxine been fighting wypipo for a hell of a long time and knows civil will get you run over and dead. A gross majority of Racist WHITE PEOPLE cannot be reasoned with. Pelosi and schumer do not have the requisite life experience to deal with crude racists such as trump and his base. Go Maxine. Middle finger here to both pelosi and schumer.

The democratic Party leadership needs us for numbers. That's is all the Party has ever neded the minority vote for. They do not respect minorities. Hell their extreme quiet when President Obama faced white obstructionism and racist hate from the RW is not forgotten. Their extreme quiet when the First Lady, Michelle Obama was called monkey and worse, is not forgotten. When we held the majority in Congress President Obama's first 2 years, the racist 'bluedogs' obstructed him also. The 'southern strategy' BOYS AND GIRLS. Remember them, they are still with our Party. I have not forgotten.

I will never forget. The only way I am like the repthugliKKKan icon, the elephant, is my memory of WHITE RACISM AND INJUSTICE in my 70 years on this stinking ball of spinning dirt. And now a minority of racist white people has the majority of trumps racist base thinking the "good old days" have returned. Well they haven't. This is a new day NEVER to return to white supremacist evil, hated and ignorance. White supremacist/trump nationalists are the epitome of pigs in their pen wallowing mindlessly in their shit and mud. They better "take it easy". storm's a brewin'....
