Just this year I learnt you should carve out the top (stem) part. Apparently there’s some nutrients/water, magic, or something, left in it; and if you leave it uncut it will help the rest of the pumpkin look better for longer.
Cut out the bottom, or a hole in the back, instead.
Can’t do anything without holding all 3 parts of government - including a filibuster proof majority in the senate.
But yes, it would have been nice to see democrats speaking up about workers wages & universal healthcare. Loudly, broadly and repeatedly.
