“I get it that it makes people feel good to see people yelling,” Slotkin said. “But not one of those words is stopping the actual things that Donald Trump is doing.”

Perhaps it's not working because of people like Slotkin willing to continue the losing strategies of the past.

So she just misunderstands her job.

Bernie and AOC and Walz aren't doing that so they can stop Trump. It's to galvanize folks AGAINST Trump right now and not wait until midterms to start.
