We've shown that united we stand and we need to continue to focus and act together. "We

Voter turnout is up 20% in GA (vs 10% nationwide)
Biden picked up 5% compared to 2016 (vs 2% nationwide)

I do know we can't survive any self inflicted wounds like Defund the Police and anyone proudly proclaiming they are a social democrat.

9. Relentlessly attack Republicans as democracy stealing, America

hating, corrupt fascists who want to make voting completely meaningless, and who have no regard for the health, safety, security, prosperity, and happiness of the American people.

Democrats need to get aggressive as soon as Joe assumes office, and pay particular attention to the Hispanic community

We need do is tell the truth over and over and over, everywhere, making sure we call them exactly what they are when we do it:

Fascists.

fight for his presidency. We don't expect him to do everything we want. And we need to ignore those who are already in attack mode. We could pick up two Senate seats in 22 you know and more house seats if you we show up. Let's not knee cap Biden as Obama was in 10 and 14-self inflicted.We stop waiting for Demographic changes that may never come and work in our state to try to win for the Democrats in every election from dog catcher to local government and everything in between ...the Democratic party is the only party that can stop the GOP. The attempt at a coup by the GOP shows how important it is to stop the GOP now. We may not get another opportunity. We look at the map and the electoral college and employ a 50 state strategy. We win elections.
