Last week we won a great victory and put trump on notice that his administration is essentially over after November 3, 2026, only to witness 8 Senators decide to turn traitor, and side with the republicans to end the shutdown,

We had all the momentum and the American people on our side.

The latest poll had 45% blaming the Republicans and 39% pointing to the Democrats.

When independents are included, the gap mushrooms with 48% holding the GOP responsible, 32% blaming Democrats.
