No one is ever successfully enrolled by “pushing them away”. We need to practice “closeness” by pulling people in. That’s the very nature of bipartisanship and our future depends on ending this fractious division we are living in ... @VanJones68 gets it

.@goldengateblond you are beyond brilliant.
Obviously the senator is busy on drumstick defense issues and his role in the current Putsch, and can’t be bothered about the food lines in his state. Or the morgue trucks. My friends father just died in Texas. Unforgivable.
