The color red will be a distant memory.. so long Russia, so long Trumplicans

Democrats, Centrists, Left leaning, Right leaning, RINOS, DINOS, Libertarians who are not Randians (few and far between I know, but they do exist) All Americans of good spirit . We will fight in the future once again over our political ideals.. but for now, we are like the ENTS,.. we are going to war, to remove the virus that has infested the current Republican party in order to save our Democracy

I am okay with this.. we will butt heads in the future.. but for now we are warriors headed forward arm and arm in the same battle.

We’ve gotten a good look at the strength of the messaging of groups like the Lincoln Project. That’s another silver lining of this dark cloud.
