I have a sports metaphor story for this!

I have a younger brother who was a very competitive baseball player as a kid. Was on all the local travel & developmental squads.

One of his coaches had a very interesting and counterintuitive (to me) philosophy of the game, as it was played at that level.
This does not mean “don’t worry about it,” or even that “it’s just a distraction.”

It means fight, delay, push back, express doubt, and do anything you can to remind anyone who’ll listen that Trump and Trumpers threaten all sorts of things and hope you’ll jump out of the way.

Don’t forfeit.
