We need probably twice that to kick their teeth in and force them into some semblance of submission. We have to beat them and beat them up. They have to be thoroughly HUMILIATED.

There MUST be consequences for their shit, their lies, their obstruction, their hypocrisy, their greed, their short-sightedness, and the harm they seem hellbent on doing to everybody who isn’t a wealthy white male.

The only way they MAY learn anything is to lose and be publicly repudiated.

Get Out The VOTE!!!

subtracting one corresponding number from their tally. But I still prefer a bigger win. The bad guys are gonna go all out to get revenge in 2020 and it seems to me they have far more wealthy and powerful donors than we do. And remember one other thing: these guys cheat. Plus, they’ve done NOTHING to head off more Russian interference in our elections. I strongly suspect that’s because they want more of that same help in future elections, including this next one.

I want a win big enough to be called “obscene”. The more ground they lose, the harder it’ll be and the longer it’ll take - for them to recoup some, or Heaven forbid, all of those losses.

I want these bastards at maximum disadvantage for as long as possible. We’re going to have to protect and sustain ALL of the ground we’ll have gained after this November, because of the presidential election cycle following in 2020. By then some of their voters will be more fired up to A) keep the White House and B) to block or seek revenge and payback for a possible trump impeachment. He’s sure to try to remake himself as a poor tortured victim to appeal to the deplorable demographic that helped put him into power, and in too bewilderingly many cases, still supports him.
