11. Supporting Democrats is important

Wed Mar 18, 2026, 01:52 AM

It's counterproductive to the Democratic Party once a primary is over to whine about "disappointment." It's very uncool to talk disparagingly about where they obtained campaign funds. It could hurt them in the general.

The race is over. The Democrat in the race has been chosen. Your fellow Democrats chose them. Try to be happy for them and congratulate them. The candidate deserves our full support.
