Here is something to remind everyone what 2020 is all about...

[SKKY]

Turn-out, turn-out, and turn-out. In that order. Trump won Wisconsin with fewer votes than Romney had when he lost. Regardless of who the candidate is, we must have an all-hands-on-deck voter turn-out campaign. Every registered Democrat must vote. If we do, we’ll win easily.

1. Oh, we need a lot more than registered Democrats to win.

All left-leaning independents and a few percentage points of moderate Republicans.

[SKKY]

2. Oh for sure. But when Dems vote in large numbers, Independents tend...

...to follow suit. Just look at the last mid-terms, or even the recent Kentucky gubernatorial race.

3. That's it. plain and simple

6. We need disheartened Republicans to stay home.

[lastlib]

4. AND we need NON-registered Dems to REGISTER!!

for the sake of their (our) country!

5. Gaslighting social media made many lukewarm about HRC

THAT is where we underperformed. All through 2016, I would be confronted online with people opposing my views about everything. They were sewing the seeds of doubt, trying to make me uncertain.* Few saw it coming, but there it was. So when Trump turned up the anger and the GOP spawned "EMAILS!" as HRC's issue, too many voters were uncertain, doubtful of their own perceptions, and took the bait. That in a nutshell is how I will always see it. AND WE HAVE TO DO THE SAME ABOUT TRUMP IN 2020!! Make the MAGAt enthusiasts you encounter feel like they don't trust their own minds and soul. Make them weak. We can do it!

*I remember posting on this site, relative to global warming, and how I was so proud of making my own heat with firewood, from dead trees, that would have become CO2 over a decade or so anyway. Some troll, Russian I think, lambasted me about it, gaslighting me. THAT is how you sew doubt about another person. Make them not believe in their own perceptions, opinions, beliefs. They gaslighted not just about politics, that was the end game, the election day prelude. They gaslit everything to prime us for conversion. We were manupulated.

7. Yes!!! This all day long!

8. Not sure that was a turnout issue.

I think Wisconsin blocked tens of thousands of voters.

Not sure where to look that up.

9. Of course they did. PA, MI, WI, and FL all had aggressive...

...disenfranchisement efforts. Moving polling stations, misleading mailers from the Republican Party, etc. It’s the only play they have. Which is why we need to get out the freaking vote.
