Remembering when I ran into a Trump volunteer in Scranton right before the election who told me he backed Trump because he wanted to keep his grandson out of war and then it turned out that he was also a former GOP legislator who'd been convicted of perjury related to campaign finance violations.

I have been saying this for almost a year and it is long past due for Dems to adopt this framing for 2 reasons:
