Joe Biden and Democrats are not only hailing the special election as a validation of his agenda but taking notes on how to defeat Donald Trump in November.
Saved you a click: Shift to the right and become more moderate
It took the GOP fifty years to kill Roe V. Wade. Like I said, they worked 24/7. If you think you’re the only person who thinks like you then you’re as egotistical as the guy who thinks everyone agrees with him
Sometimes hope is what we need to keep going in what looks like an insurmountable challenge. It’s simply a way to motivate people. Conservatives have used hope to motivate their base. Conservative voters are willing to show up because they have hope that they can change our society (in a negative way, for the record) using the political process. They have been wildly successful at that. We can harness the same resources and use it against them. Only we can theoretically do it better, because we have the most important thing: numbers.
It’s up to all of us to step up, show leadership ourselves, and grind this shit out. We have to fight the GOP, a good deal of Democratic Party leadership, and the media every single day. We have to work primary campaigns, push out moderates in the primaries, and remove every GOP member possible during general elections. And we have to do it for decades. It works. It has worked before. I don’t care if we’re motivated by hope, hate, or hunger. We just need to stay motivated.
I doubt there are fifty people who agree with me in the entire country.
I’m resigned to being miserable. Don’t do that. Don’t give me hope.
