1) are unaware of all that the Dems have done
2) don't understand that without a MAJORITY, Dems can't enact policies.
FDR had a SUPERMAJORITY. You want FDR-like policies? Voters need to give Dem supermajority.
Withdrawing a vote means no one gets anything.

These narratives are a constant in mainstream media (and social media). If you want people to disengage and not vote, amplify these messages/sentiments. If you want a Dem majority in 2026, follow Dems & highlight what they're doing.
