and then we voted to impeach. So if you can help Doug, please do.

I think Arizona match is already well funded.

I want to get rid of mitch so bad, I can taste it. Amy McGrath is going to need time and money to get rid of him.

Fortunately my state is solid blue so my small amount can be spread out to other Senatorial candidates. I live on a fixed income which means I better fight tooth and nail to keep my Social Security income and my Medicare!

after primaries postcards to voters should have volunteer opportunities. I fund your postcards and postage if you'd like to do that.

I did a primary race for super tuesday for california already.

I have limited mobility so I could help that way.

Which I’m also fine with. Preferably though, let’s just kick his ass out.

The MAGA hatters are Trump's brown shirts. We must work to defeat his enablers because they are his foundation.

Just as many of us surmised he would do, Trump just doubled down on his determined power grab. Let’s get over our shock, accept he is determined to be our dictator (what else does he want to be if not that?) and get focused on what we can do.

I saw a recent report that The Orange One is considering putting Sekulow on SCOTUS if a spot opens up. He might have trouble getting him through the Sena…. Oh who am I kidding? Mitch would shove anybody in there to please His Rotund-ness.

If we had the senate, Trump would be packing his shit right now. Election 2020 would be about a humiliated Mike Pence, rather than Trump, and Pence can't fire up Trump's base.

...and not to have a fair trial. They voted for no witnesses and no evidence. They should have to answer for being cowards and traitors.

In my opinion.

With Trump packing the courts, the only way to stop some of the egregious nonsense being passed on the state level is to take back state legislatures wherever possible.

But, yes, I agree that the Senate is vitally important.

...if we focus our efforts on the Senate, the WH has an excellent, probably likely, possibility of following suit. And even if Trump somehow pulls this thing out and stumbles into a 2nd term, a Democratic controlled house and Senate would be an excellent firewall. JMHO...

I’ve been talking about it too. We need to get as persuasive as we can. Many people are not really savvy about how the power dynamic works in Washington. It’s pretty evident in the kind of posts and comments you see on DU. People forget that the Presidents are not supposed to have more power than the other two branches of government, so they focus on him, not realizing there’s more than one way to fight.

So keep posting!

Hopefully we can do both, but let's not get so focused on the presidential race that we ignore the Senate. My Senators are both Dems, so I've been sending money to the important ones like Amy McGrath, Sara Gideon, Mark Kelly.

"If he is up against a solid Democratic Congress we can stop him, or at least keep him extremely limited in his option."

AND IMPEACH HIM AGAIN, SUCCESSFULLY THIS TIME!!!

He thinks no one can touch him.

It was the indictment in the Senate that failed. That’s why we have to flip the Senate.

Trump is a danger and an embarrassment to this country. I would like to flip the senate but if I could only pick one I'd have a Democrat win the White House and the Republicans keep the Senate. But ideally we get both.

The House has passed 400 bills and sent them to the Senate. The Senate has ignored them.

Why would we not fight to have a Democratic President and a Democratic Congress?

If we have the House and Senate, Trump is DOA.

If we have a Dem President, then Moscow Mitch will do everything he can to fuck them over.

They’ll be even worse the next time.

If Trump was polling at 35% and only 55% with Repubs, the Repub Senate wouldn't be sucking up to his every whim.

With him polling at just over 45%, and over 90% with GOP voters ... the GOP Senators are terrified to cross him.

The Magats are critical to his power.

But as his attack dogs. The MAGATs didn’t acquit him. The Senate did.

Unlikely proposition. We need coattails from a top of ticket victory to win the Senate, zero states split tickets in 2016.

and hopefully with some focused work on our part we’ll get a Democratic President and Congress. But we should all also fight outside our own states in order to get it.

get republican-purged voters back on the voter rolls (just won that GA victory you might’ve read about!). http://www.palastinvestigativefund.org/

We desperately need to GOTV.

Pick one of these states and make donations and phone calls for the Dem nominee.
Arizona, NCarolina, Maine, Colorado. Those are our best hopes to beat a GOP incumbent.

it would be a good idea to post about here so people can do one time donations. I think it might well become necessary this election.

Unless we flipped 20 seats.
Still no Republicans would vote to take out the trash from the WH.

dynamics might change. Mitch obviously has a lock on the power structure and if he’s replaced by Amy McGrath who is completely different then that’s one seat that changes completely. She is much less likely to be a Trump cultist. If this happens to a few Trump loyalists then things change. Romney may not be the lone republican with a sense of decency and patriotism.

The Republicans could possibly stop being a solid pro Trump block. A few changes could change everything.
