Here is how to win the midterms.

Nationalize the election as much as possible. Make it Biden vs Trump as much as possible. Trump will help with that because he is a narcissist who will insist that it be all about him. Here is what you tell the voters: " You have seen the way Trump controls the Republican Party, punishing anyone who crosses him. If you vote for the Republican senator or representative they will belong to Trump - not you."

The only way to win is to help our people overcome the voter suppression.

Swing voters are extinct.

The game now is turnout and court battles - and physical battles.

Those look like swing voters to me. We need to get them in the midterms.

but they are not smart enough to see that all Reptilians are that way.

They are gonna vote Reptilian no matter what; all we can do is hope they give themselves COVID and die.

We are making a big mistake if we don't try. If you are right then retaining the House is probably hopeless

I can't even talk to those pigs anymore.

There are way more of us than them; key is to get our folks to show up.

One good friend voted for Biden but Republicans otherwise.

He’s not loved by many republicans. And my friend is disgusted by the way Republican office holders are beholden to trump. He may sit out 22. But he also now agrees we need a universal healthcare plan. So hopefully votes Democratic. I hope I’ve influenced him. He is not really religious. At all.
