Democrats spread money around thickly, and pay to put feet on the ground where they need it. They never rest, they never run of money. They take the initiative every time and carry it home. They’ve left no stone unturned.
The Republicans talk and complain and make funny memes.
But they never get of their asses. They just sit around waiting for some of that money to dribble over to them.
We don't get paid out of government kickbacks, bribes and funny money contracts. Of course they are going to put in massive amounts of legwork and money to keep their gravy train corruption flowing into their pockets.
It's hard to counter that with volunteers trying to do the right thing but with no compensation other than altruism.
