For Trump: Electus Interruptus

That's what I'm hoping for in November. A recognition by all who will be damaged by a Trump presidency that he must not be allowed to even come close to the White House. Women, for example, should be able to see how much harm he will do to them. Minorities, of course, already seem to understand that he is far from a friend. Working men should understand that he will, just as he has his vendors, stiff them without remorse. Millennials? I don't know if they'll even turn out to vote, but Trump is their enemy in so many ways, that those ways defy counting.

Let's just deny his aspirations overwhelmingly. Let's talk to everyone we know in a focused way and show them exactly how he will hurt each one of them, specifically and personally. There's an argument against Trump for every demographic group. Let's sweep Hillary Clinton into the White House and Trump into the dustbin of history.

Let's do this.

GOTV for Hillary!

Respect their hunting and religious culture, make them see that we have a plan to create jobs for them, and make them see that Republicans and Trump are FRAUDS who love to send their jobs overseas and that Trump makes his stuff in China.

Go right for the economics. Show Trump for the sleazy anti-worker person he is.

When you're trying to convince someone, stay away from the areas where you disagree. Go for the real meat of the argument.

Trump will replace them with workers in third world countries. In the meantime, he'll refuse to pay people for their work. That's the message. He has done it before and he'll do it again.
