he could lose PA and MI and the popular vote by 5 million and still be elected.
We must take the States he won!
We must get people to vote!

It's scary, but we must fight this abomination.

1. Getting out the vote is the only thing that matters

We have to overwhelm with such a great turnout that it swamps the voter-suppression and election hijinks.

I want us to have a turnout of such massive proportions that has never been seen before. I want us to kick Trump's ass out of office, regain the Senate, and win over every state legislature within reach. I want us to win PA, MI, and WI back, and to add in AZ, IA, GA, and (come on)!!! My own North-fuckin-Carolina. I want these assholes so demoralized that no one will touch them.

Hey, a man can dream, can't he??

2. Who will be organizing the GOTV?

We should organize a fundraiser for them.

4. As someone who has walked a ton of precincts over

the years, money is great but warm bodies are better. It is so hard to find volunteers willing to knock on doors or talk to people at events. Working phones and tables are what we need.

[murielm99]

18. I live in a rural, red area

of a blue state. Actually, I am find it easier to get warm bodies out there these days. I hope they don't burn out before the general. Our primary is March 17.

[blm]

11. If you live in a blue state, donate to county Dem groups in a swing state.

That money goes to GOTV.

[DBoon]

13. Thanks I live in a very blue state

nice to help other folks out.

[blm]

19. DU helped Meck County Dems in N.C. one year and it made the diff

for statewide judges, big time. Most voters don’t know judges, and N.C. Republicans took away party affiliation for judges on the ballot. DU helped pay for the printing of voter handouts that featured all the Dem judges. Dems swept the judge seats that year. It matters for statewide races, especially, because Meck County is where most of the Dem voters in N.C. reside.

[moose65]

20. Glad DU was able to help!

But actually, "most" Dem voters in NC don't live in Mecklenburg County. Wake County has the same amount of Dems (if not more) and Guilford has a large amount as well.

[blm]

24. Wake and Guilford do have strong D numbers, but, I've

heard that Meck numbers have exploded n recent years. But, I did word that last post awkwardly.

3. He won by less than 1/10th of one percent the last time around.. I have hope!

[LenaBaby61]

5. Very doable to take those 3 states he STOLE last General Election ...

Even if Dems GOTV to huge numbers all across this country, what is ru$$ia going to do for an encore to stick their noses into our elections to get their big, fat, treasonous puppet elected AGAIN by any means necessary. They too have a 50 state strategy.

tRumputin, MoscowMitch nor ANY thuglicans going to do shit to make sure our elections are as safe and fair as they SHOULD be.

[evertonfc]

6. Florida

This is where Trump will make his stand. We can win it and if we do- game over. 2016 was low turnout. Demographics favor us there if we have a candidate that can GOTV

[NewJeffCT]

7. Florida, Georgia, Arizona, Texas should be in play

in addition to NC, PA, MI and WI

[at140]

8. Quoting George Stephanopolous...

"It is the economy, stupid!" To help win in 2020, do the following:

Postpone buying stuff until Nov 2020, stuff you really don't need urgently.
Do not buy any more stocks until election.
Sell stocks in 2020. Taxes could go up in 2021.
Postpone any travel which is not required until election.

If stock market crashes and retail sales tank, Trump is toast.

[TheRealNorth]

10. I agree

We need to leverage our shrinking economic power now, because if we don't do something about economic inequality soon, we will be serfs at the mercy of the 1%.

[Fresh_Start]

14. absolutely thats what I said in November 2016 and January 2017

if you want to get rid of this POS, crash the economy.

[phleshdef]

25. Pro-actively trying to crash the economy is not the answer.

[at140]

40. Economy is over-heated, and over due for a temporary setback

might as well try to time it with the 2020 election.
It does no good if it crashes after the election.

[Scoopster]

9. States that will flip

PA
MI
IA
AZ
Maybe KS
Maybe NC
Maybe WI
Maybe FL
Maybe GA
Maybe one EV from Nebraska

[bearsfootball516]

17. Iowa, Kansas and North Carolina are much more red than Wisconsin is.

If Iowa goes blue, Iowa, Kansas and NC all are.

[Norbert]

12. He has done nothing but energize his base

Pissed off members of the military, some of the farmers, continuing to hack off anyone of color.

He campaigned for three gubernatorial races and only won one of them by less than expected results.

I believe he will not only lose the three rust belt states, he will lose three others (Arizona, Iowa and North Carolina).

[Dan]

16. Why not

All 50?

[doc03]

21. What few Democrats I know seem to have

concluded that we can't beat him with any of the current candidates.

[at140]

22. Michelle Obama would beat him like a drum

but alas, she is not running.
And there were no governors on stage at the last debate.
And none of the well known prominent current senators are running.

[edhopper]

23. Let's hope they are wrong

[Anyone]

28. I'll probably be banned..

but Tulsi is the *only* credible candidate that can beat Trump.

I say this because Tump is a master TROLL and he's playing this whole impeachment gig upon himself intentionally. Remember - "there's no such thing as bad publicity". At the end of the day, I think Ms. Gabbard is the only candidate that Trump can least likely lay a glove upon.

Tell me why I'm wrong...

[doc03]

33. Our ideal candidate would a 50 ish, straight, moderate,

white guy with chrisma. Trump wouldn't have a chance.
But it is what it is.

[edhopper]

35. You're wrong

[TexasTowelie]

26. Actually, we only need one state

which is why I supported Beto. Some people prefer to get there along the more difficult path though.

[edhopper]

27. Texas will be very tough

I think we have a better shot at FL.

[Poiuyt]

29. My gut feeling is that WI will go back to blue

It will all come down to turnout in Milwaukee and Madison. I live in the Fox Valley, which is supposed to be mixed or perhaps slightly red. But I don't hear too many people who support trump. If the Democratic candidate is at least somewhat reasonable and campaigns well, I believe WI will vote for the Dem.

[Joe941]

30. I'm not confident of that. The polls out of WI are worrisome.

[Joe941]

31. And honestly I'd advise you to stop taking cheap shots at Hillary.

[Poiuyt]

32. Excuse me?

I didn't say a word about Hillary

[doc03]

34. Why are we talking about this in 2019? Myself and many

others here were told over and over in 2015 about a blue wall. When us people in the rust belt said we were in trouble we were told "You concern is noted". There were people that thought because of demographics Democrats couldn't lose. We had a Blue Wall.

[edhopper]

36. We didn't know about the Russians

or that Comey would do an 11th hour favor for Trump.

[doc03]

37. True nt

[Sugarcoated]

41. We had a candidate in 2016

who did not connect with blue collar Dems. Here in PA a surprising number of people I know, very reluctantly voted for Clinton or voted down ticket only. A few did indeed vote for crooked Don. In order to win in PA the city numbers must be high. The AA turnout wasn't sufficient to overcome the woodchucks in the rural parts of PA.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

38. Omg..are you trying to insert reality? No one has

Protected the vote from Russians And it's been 3 years and not a single Dem mentioned in in debates, did they?

[Laura PourMeADrink]

39. We are effed

Senate finds Russia targeted election systems in all 50 states, but legislation is stonewalled

WASHINGTON — Robert Mueller warned that Russian interference is still happening “as we sit here.”

State election officials are anxious and underfunded, some running systems with outdated software and scrounging for replacement parts off e-Bay.
