(27,888 posts)Because I have been calling for Democrats to do this for 2 months or more.
This is the type of Town Hall that I envisioned.
Look at the responses here on DU, where are the people?
This is the most important thing that Democrats could be doing to fight back.
Have a fucking town hall just for Elon Musk, done by Congressional Democrats. Show how much money, the billions of dollars that Musk gets from the government, and then show how there is little to no oversight looking into waste, fraud, and abuse from Musk's use of his government handouts.
I have plenty of more ideas for town halls if Congressional Democrats wish to PM me.

Do a town hall just on the 4.7 trillion dollars in tax cuts that are going to billionaires. Speaker Johnson wants the bill passed this 4th of July.
Do a town hall about the gutting of the IRS employees and offices. Tell the American people what DOGE did. DOGE cut the IRS auditors who audit people like Krasnov and Musk. For every 1 dollar that is spent on an auditor the government gets back 12 dollars. DOGE gutted these IRS people so that billionaires won't have to pay taxes.
Do a town hall on SignalGate and NLRBGate. These threats to our national security have been swept under the rug. Do an hour town hall and get Malcolm Nance to be a moderator.
Do the fucking town halls Democrats.
