the Democratic Party is NOT in need of reform or revolution or any other self-serving bullshit.

We are who we have always been, and what we have always been is on full display tonight in the House.

Proud to be a Democrat. An establishment Democrat, if you will.

Nothing is perfect. Perfect is a work in progress. And progress only happens when you work with the party that matters. Work to change it or go off alone and make yourself powerless.
