I did not write this but too good not to share! I think this is how "most" Americans truly feel! Dear Republicans and Democrats, In the last two years, both of your parties have suffered major election losses. Democrats in 2024 and Republicans in 2026. And I don’t think it’s because Americans suddenly decided the other party was doing such a wonderful job. I think it’s because both parties have spent too much time catering to the loudest voices on the far left and far right while ignoring the concerns of the majority of Americans somewhere in the middle. Most Americans are concerned about the same basic issues: the cost of living, affordable healthcare, government corruption, housing affordability, Social Security, education, the national debt, and immigration. And when I say immigration, I mean common-sense immigration policies. I don’t think most Americans want open borders where criminals and dangerous individuals can enter unchecked. But I also don’t think most Americans want to see hardworking people, who are contributing to our communities and doing jobs many others don’t want to do, being treated like violent criminals. Surely there’s a reasonable middle ground somewhere between those two extremes. And that applies to just about every issue we’re facing. We don’t want to see political temper tantrums. We don’t want millions of taxpayer dollars wasted on political theater and impeachment battles that accomplish nothing beyond allowing one party to say it got even with the other. We don’t want reasonable legislation rejected simply because it came from the opposing party. We want you to do your jobs. We elected you to represent the American people, not just the loudest 5% of your political base. We elected you to work together, compromise when necessary, and make decisions that actually improve people’s lives. The American people have spoken through their votes. That’s how our system is supposed to work. When elected officials stop addressing the concerns of the people they represent, voters have the opportunity to replace them. And here’s something both parties should remember: 2028 is right around the corner. If the next group of elected officials spends its time fighting, pointing fingers, seeking revenge, and catering to the political extremes instead of addressing the issues Americans actually care about, don’t be surprised when voters send you packing, too. Republicans and Democrats may disagree about how to solve our problems, but that doesn’t mean we can’t agree on what those problems are. We’re all Americans. We’re all on the same team. And whether you voted red, blue, or somewhere in between, we all benefit when our country succeeds. So please, for the sake of the American people, do better. Because what we’ve been doing clearly isn’t working.

An 18-year-old stood his ground at the polls in New Hampshire today and was assaulted for it. He stayed calm. The left got violent. Don’t cede the ground, show up to the polls. Your vote helps us outnumber these people.
