Is it possible to just ignore them?

I'm talking about those that deny accepted reality.

Isn't it simply a waste of energy to try and communicate with them anymore?

Just smile at them and go on your way?

Impeach him and let the chips fall where they may.

Also, tell them that you are not going to vote. They are all criminals. Discourage as many as possible from going to the polls.

(However, you should be in the voting line bright and early)

I always tell them a lot of people gave him a chance but now they know him?? And end it there. Creating my own doubt.

Kentuck, I generally agree with you that the ChumpHumpers aren't worth the time of day. We should just let them go because they'll never listen to anything we say. However I'm still hopeful that not all of them are goners. There were so many who didn't bother to vote in 2016, and look how we ended up.

We can't allow that to happen again, we have to make the effort to reach out to those undecided and barely-paying-attention voters. You never know when you might make the difference to some of them.

It's just the level effort is beyond the average person. Democrats really need to get involved in mass communication; they need an answer to FOXnews, RW radio, and Internet trolls. They need to pull their head out of the sands and look at how rural America gets its information and stop giving RW all the resources. Go buy some radio stations outside major population centers, have a DNC cyber-team that produces and spreads the truth, and for love of God get on the cable TV. Stop thinking a few hours on MSNBC and CNN will counter act the FOX thing. They're 30 years behind the eight ball on this now. 30 freaking years and they show no sign of getting it.
