Burgess COMMENTARY In my view there is one big reason that Hilary Clinton lost the 2016 Presidential Election, one that does not appear to be widely recognised. It is that the Democratic Party is woefully unprepared to get candidates elected. I am not a long time political operative, but I have spent many decades working in 'management' where good management got the desired results. I did some canvassing for the Hilary Clinton campaign in Pennsylvania back in 2016 and was appalled at the inaccuracy of the materials we were supplied with. I had not done hands on campaigning before, so had nothing to compare this material with ... but in absolute terms it was awful. No wonder that the managers of her campaign were poorly informed about the state of the campaign. Trump won in 2016 ... and then lost in 2020, but not by much, and the Republicans (Trumpists) are doing a lot to make sure that this result is reversed down-ballot in 2022 and at all levels in 2024. Democrats need to be alert to this, and get organized so as to be effective. I don't sense that this is happening ... and I am scared! Peter Burgess | |||||||||

[2] But Liz Cheney just laid down the law as the chair of the January 6th Investigation Committee >> she’s bringing Trump to JUSTICE. We will not be deterred by threats or attempted obstruction and we will not rest until our task is complete - Liz Cheney [3] We are ecstatic!! Liz Cheney is telling Trump loud and clear that his attempts to sabotage the January 6th investigations will FAIL. BUT SHE NEEDS OUR SUPPORT TO SEE IT THROUGH: Let Liz Cheney know that her commitment to bringing Trump to justice won’t go in vain >> STAND WITH LIZ CHENEY >> **WITH 5,000 PENNSYLVANIA SIGNATURES BEFORE MIDNIGHT, WE’LL CONVINCE EVEN MORE REPUBLICANS TO FOLLOW LIZ’S LEAD & STAND UP TO TRUMP** Peter -- Liz Cheney is absolutely right: Donald Trump must be thoroughly investigated for his role in inciting the violent Capitol insurrection on January 6th. But most of Cheney’s GOP colleagues are refusing the fact that Trump: ➔ Threatened state officials to RIG the 2020 election, ➔ DENIED the election results after it was called for Biden, ➔ And incited a DEADLY ATTACK on the Capitol to overturn the election! It’s more apparent than ever: the Republican Party is controlled by right-wing extremists who will defend Trump by any means necessary. That’s why it’s CRUCIAL that we stand with the few level-headed Republicans left. If we do, even MORE Republicans could stand up to Trump -- and the entire GOP will TOPPLE!
