Phone bank report

Spent an hour phone banking for Bloomberg yesterday and was pleasantly surprised at how receptive people were to discussing his candidacy. All of the calls were warm with the recipient list developed from voters who filled out their information on the Bloomberg website. The major takeaways were:

1. With one exception for health care, everyone I talked to thought the single issue for the election was to remove the bloated shitbag. This indicates to me that every candidate should pivot away from discussing complex issues and focus on attacking the obese assclown.

2. The demographics for Bloomberg were up and down the electorate from millennials to baby boomers. The appeal was there.

3. Nearly everyone had seen at least one of Bloomberg’s ads in Florida. The saturation effort is real and gaining momentum.

4. Everyone said yes to a lawn sign.

This is only the first step of many and the job for the next 267 days is to keep the pressure on the impeached fuckturd and to influence as many people as possible to remove the shitstain from the WH.

Time to do our fucking jobs.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden

All had their identification. This isn’t my first rodeo calling people and I confirmed with the recipient their name. I’m pretty good at this shit.
