There’s no shortcut, folks.

on an election that is already rigged in Trump's favor by Russia and the GOP?

Cue Comey, Wray, Coates, Mueller who all told us UNDER OATH that the election is rigged "as we sit here"


All T has to do is botch several state results, refer to SCOTUS for resolution, and VOILA. Fait accompli.

CANNOT WAIT FOR ELECTION. CANNOT RELY ON ELECTION.

That's what is happening, and that is why the poll numbers for the inquiry and impeachment are going up. They need to make it clear that obstruction will be included in the articles of impeachment. He may not be removed from office, but this will affect the election.

Trump's numbers TODAY on approval of an inquiry are the same that Nixon's were MONTHS later during the Senate trial!!

MSNBC, tonight.

"Republicans decline to comment"

People in the street.

Look to the model of the Civil Rights Era. Just people gathered together in their good clothes, standing, walking, determined.

No papier mache whales, no drummers or stilt walkers or pink pussy hats.

Just people en masse. People of all kinds.

THAT will make a tyrant tremble.

We are the ones we have been waiting for. People in the street will provide cover for Dems in Congress.

There have been tons where I live but I know that rural areas don't have many and when they do the turnout isn't very large. People give me an assortment of excuses for not attending over the past 3 years. Basically they use anything for an excuse and this is in a blue area too. The fucking moron's actions haven't had a large negative impact on their personal lives to make it a priority for a few hours every few months. Very discouraging. I am really pissed off since I finally have had my activist activities reduced due to my failing health. I knew it would happen but didn't know when. It sucks!

First of all stop treating the documents as necessary to impeachment. I think Pelosi or Schiff pointed out that obstruction is impeachable. We have enough evidence he has asked foreign countries for help in his campaign which is criminal and impeachable. Start saying that if there is anything exculpatory bring it forward now before it’s too late.

The only issue in the upcoming election is winning. I agree we are going to face interference. We can’t be defeatist. Treat it as having to win by a bigger margin. Nothing is lost by acting that way.

Also stop worrying about policy differences. Worry about not providing fodder for attack ads. For example I don’t think the answer to “they are going to take away your private insurance” is yes we are but that’s better for you. The right answer is no we’re not we are giving you more options and the republicans are the ones who have spent 10 years fight to take away the affordable care act.


We need to use talking points more effectively. Particularly from the candidates. I want all of them saying that getting foreigners to attack the Bidens is really an attack on all Americans. That Barr is obstructing justice and must stop actin as trump’s personal lawyer. Never took a marketing class but even I know repetition works. I don’t want their personal spin on it. I want who says it most convincingly

There are other tools but I think they would backfire. The house holds the power of the purse. We could shut down government but i think that work against us.

Just my 2 cents

it's probably the only thing that will work.

It's like wishing for a hurricane to hit Mar a Lago and not damage the rest of Palm Beach
