David Hogg: Change Happens ‘When We Engage In Our Democracy’ | The Last Word | MSNBC
t’rump: “Under my leadership, school shootings have stopped!”
America: “Isn’t that because of your failure on the corona and the 300,000 dead Americans under your leadership?”
t’rump: “Yeah, but no school shootings!”
America:
112 school shootings since 2018
@kommon Cents So sad and this pos wants to sit on the golf course crying and saying that the election is rigged.,.
@kommon Cents Wow in Canada you have to go back 45 years to 1975 to even get 11 school shootings.
Still too many but 112 in 2 years that’s a societal problem looking for a solution.
Gun control seems to work here it doesn’t stop them all but there wouldn’t be 112 in 2 years.
Meanwhile the GOP is trying to destroy the very Democracy we are trying to engage in. GOP politicians & their electorate have failed America.
I pray that there will still be a democracy.
Are you illegal i think you are you under arrest.

David makes me have hope for the future
he sure does. Refreshing to hear him talk at a time when there is so many disingenuous talking heads out there.

Excellent idea! I hope Joe will do it.
When Obama becomes President these right wing lose their minds and right now when Trump Lost they lose their minds again. Looks like it’s their habit.

I haven’t heard from him in so long. Keep up the good work, David!
Look at history, and you will see, that change happens when a genius human appears and changes the way we understand what we are.

Amazing young man. Resilience through unspeakable tragedy. Don’t stop, David!
