6. Our focus has to be about policy, defeating Project 2025, and this existential threat to humanity.

Joe was hired to think and lead, and he has done a masterful job. In declining to continue, he has flummoxed Trump and given us new energy, attention, and momentum.

The OP is correct in that negative feelings and disappointments should not be aired because they help the opposition. I hope and encourage those folks to assess the landscape and see their help is needed in local races, county Dem HQ's, school board races (Moms for Liberty are still rolling). That's what Joe wants us to do. Nothing will satisfy him more here than if his assessment of the situation was correct and we deliver the knockout blow to Donald Trump. Duty calls and tempus fugits. 3-1/2 months to election day!!
