"We're in this together."
I'll never understand why seemingly normal Americans still support #45. We've witnessed over the last three years his erratic, mendacious, and reckless self, and it mystifies me that any sane American could still think of #45 as honest, competent, or having America's best interests at heart.
I'm watching an increasingly demented maniac and his consigliere, Giuliani, lash out at those who do not fall for their avalanches of lies and deceit, thinking that their perfidious excuses and explanations will be believed.
***********************************************
We’re in this together.
It’s simple: whatever political flag they fly, everyone in the U.S. who has a regular job, pays ordinary bills and taxes, has served time in the military or on a serious sports team, or has a traditional college education has a quality — discipline— that the unmoored, unfocused Trumpites lack. The complaints about Trump from white veterans in the heartland and black lawyers in Boston are similar: Where is his discipline?
Peter Wehner @Peter_Wehner Mr. Trump was emotionally/psychologically unwell when he became president. His condition is clearly worsening. He's becoming more volatile, erratic and unstable. At some point he's going to blow apart. When he does it'll create a crisis. This won't end well. Pray for our country. 8:12 PM - Aug 18, 2018

Yes, It was just a movie...however this speech....read just the hi-lights and here we are.
"Good morning. Good morning. In less than an hour, aircraft from here will join others from around the world, and you will be launching the largest aerial battle in the history of mankind. Mankind, that word should have new meaning for all of us today. We can't be consumed by our petty differences any more. We will be united in our common interest. Perhaps it's fate that today is the 4th of July, and you will once again be fighting for our freedom. Not from tyranny, oppression, or persecution, but from annihilation. We're fighting for our right to live, to exist�and should we win the day, the 4th of July will no longer be known as an American holiday, but as the day when the world declared in one voice, 'We will not go quietly into the night! We will not vanish without a fight! We're going to live on, we're going to survive.' Today we celebrate our independence day!"
President Thomas Whitmore
July 4th, 1996
Yes. Put aside your petty differences. Get the hell out and vote Democratic. Do it or we die, our rights will die, our freedoms will die and our planet will die and we will no longer exist, the GOP guarantees it. This is no time to stage a Revolution and rip it all down, Right now, at this very moment we all need to vote Democratic.

At my own rally in TN tonight, hopefully we can flip a Senate seat Blue!!
I am taking my 92 year old mom in to vote early.
it's worth it to fight fascism. thank her and give her a smooch on the cheek for me. She oughta be proud of herself. Fighting a fight we thought we won in the 40's.... 
We may disagree at times, but regardless, we're on the same side. This shit is important. I'm glad you're as passionate as I am. 
Works for me.
That's the whole thing, she. We need to do this or we and everything we love will die. I pray that everyone is hearing this. There's already been too much cast aside and accepted as "collateral damage".
Women's choice is not a distraction. Being able to worship (or not) freely is not a distraction. LGBTQ issues are not distractions. My skin is not a distraction. We are ALL in this together. Vote Democratic in all races.
I love that movie!
That all trumpites are undisciplined. I am in the heart of red country...and they all are not. Think Beto has it right...he doesn't demean them but tries to find common ground. And try to appeal to basic values in a simple way. (Since we are not dealing with intelligentia here
I do think you should find a way to kindly show contrast. Sherrod Brown was just on and showed his ad. It was good but he never added any contrast. Yes, we are for decent wages. Nothing wrong with throwing in that Republicans always vote against raising minimum wage.
