#Trump is following the authoritarian playbook by the letter.

It is rumored that he plans to invoke the insurrection act and he is already trying normalize the deployment of troops to his enemies.

Call to Action. If you are in a blue state, make sure you are leaving everything on the field to keep it that way. Not even kidding here.

If you are in a purple or red state, y’all it’s time. Full court press. Leave no eligible voter un contacted.

Every. Single. Vote. Every. Single. Seat.

I love what you said so much. You know it took how long to get from Eisenhower to trump?
Or Walter Cronkite to Sean hannity? (I am dating myself!!)
So we have to be in for the long haul and we can turn the party more Progressive, and can have the country we want but we must vote.

Kahn the editor of the NYT has Daddy issues - if you get a chance read the interview with him in New Yorker from last year I think.

Agree with you so much - the time for divisiveness within the Democratic party is over if we want to win elections and we MUST or the Republic is in peril!
We need to bring in the Dems, The Libs, The Progressives, the independents and Republicans who realize our constitution is at risk!
