The huge, big, gigantic lesson for Democrats coming out of the Trump years, is always, Always, ALWAYS be effective and loyal to your ideals.
And if you do, you can pull another 20% out of the "given up on voting" voters to join your side. They became apathetic because Democrats always compromise away their principals.
For instance, if something needs to be illegal, because polluters are spewing poison into our atmosphere, do not compromise down to tax incentives.
Losers.

“Ms. Machado is receiving the Nobel Peace Prize first and foremost for her efforts to advance democracy in Venezuela. But democracy is also in retreat internationally. Democracy – understood as the right to freely express one’s opinion, to cast one’s vote and to be represented in elective government – is the foundation of peace both within countries and between countries.”

History shows how dangerous moral panics can be. Jews were falsely accused of murdering or harming children in blood libel myths. Today, trans people are similarly accused of “grooming” children, creating fear and mistrust where none exists. Both narratives invent threats to innocence, weaponize fear, and justify discrimination. These fears are not based in reality. They exist simply because some people don’t like us.
Jane Fonda has relaunched the Committee for the First Amendment, first backed by her father Henry Fonda in 1947, to fight against what the group calls a ‘coordinated campaign’ from the Nazi Regime to curb freedom of expression.
