Everyone needs to stop saying he is going to get beaten in November.

[redstatebluegirl]

Stop it right now, I don't want to see any more polls nothing. Wait until next week, my guess is his numbers will be up 5 points or more because the majority of Americans are not very bright and easily scared into submission.

We have to go under the assumption that we are going to lose, and lose big so we keep right on working, staying vigilant and getting people registered and to the polls in November.

To get this to stop we have to beat the pants of these cretins if we don't the republic is lost and most of us who have fought him will be in jail under martial law.

He and the underbelly of this country are using the peaceful protests to get him reelected by fear.

[lame54]

1. Yes - this...

Fight like we are barely going to win

If we crush him - all the better

[Ms. Toad]

2. Complacency is part of why he is there now.

We cannot afford to make the same mistake twice.

[malaise]

3. I disagree

Ridicule the fool!
Fuck Bunker boy!
Down he goes!
GO and vote!
he is history!

[agingdem]

7. absolutely!

nothing says we're gonna win like going into an election confident we're going to lose...I have had it with this kind of shit mentality! Like you said ridicule, humiliate, marginalize fat bunker boy and then go vote...crawl over glass if you have to...

[malaise]

9. Correct is right

[Sunsky]

11. +100 nt

[beachbumbob]

4. not chance to muffle my voice, trump will be beaten and its up to each of us to make it happen

I am hoping for better response by the FEW who are not NOW supporting trump. The VAST majority of americans hate the man and the GOP with every cell of their body

[mindfulNJ]

5. Agree 100%

We need to act like we're 30 points behind.

[sop]

6. Exactly right. I'm afraid if people believe this, they'll stay home again.

[redstatebluegirl]

8. We have to vote, every single one of us, every single time.

They have already begun taking over city councils and school boards. We must vote no matter what. If I have to wear a hazmat suit I will vote in June and in November.

[stopdiggin]

10. will agree that anyone that thinks this is in the bag

at this early stage is delusional.

Sad to say .. but under the current climate .. it's my belief that even marginal signs of competency in the executive branch would be enough to put this thing over the top. People are spooked .. and moving toward being scared. It's not a good look.

(And .. steady eddie Joe Biden might be the smartest thing that the Democrats have done in years!)

12. I Think This Is The Year He Gets What He Deserves

It's been coming for a while but the pressure is building. So far this hasn't been the best year for him and it's only going to get worse. His temper tantrums are becoming such that I wonder if he will even survive the year physically.

[Doodley]

13. Whatever the polls say, we have to overcome, gerrymandering, voter suppression, possible vote

hacking, fake smears, fake investigations, misinformation, scaremongering, Putin, and more. That is a mountain to climb.

[Sherman A1]

14. I have an opinion on what will be the results of the November election

and posted it about a month ago. It appeared to be rather unpopular and the post was hidden.

[llmart]

15. New voters

We have to get all these young, new voters out to vote also. We need to increase our base. I highly doubt the majority of the young voters are RW tiki torch carriers. An awful lot of the protesters are of voting age. We need to convince them that voting for Dems is part of the solution.

[Wounded Bear]

16. People were overconfident in 2016...

need to make sure that doesn't happen again in 2020.

We need everybody out to vote this fall, everybody in every state, county and city in the country.

We need to overwhelm all of the Repub electioneering and voter suppression.

Sure, I watch polls and I take some comfort in Biden's lead in them, but I'm gonna vote.

[Brainfodder]

17. I'm going to be surprised if he survives to November at this point?

This daily one upping of loony has about 150 more cycles to election day!

[Demsrule86]

18. No we don't that just discourages voters and makes people feel hopeless...work hard and believe.

[jeffreyi]

19. your points are so right on

well said.
We need to donate $$$ also, where it will do the most good. Advice, anybody? Thanks in advance.

[ancianita]

22. You could start with Jaime Harrison in SC, and Amy McGrath in KY. We need Repubs OUT in the Senate.

[jeffreyi]

31. Duly noted.

[fishwax]

20. I disagree that we have to go under the assumption that we are going to lose

We do have to keep working, though. Some people will be motivated to keep working by the fear that we will lose. Some will be motivated by the anticipation that we will win.

But nobody can be complacent. The stakes are too high. We all need to do whatever we can.

[lamp_shade]

21. Exactly

[Buckeye_Democrat]

23. Absolutely.

I went out today, and saw NOBODY wearing a mask as the entered and left gas station convenience stores and all kinds of businesses.

The virus might as well be a hoax, the way people are acting. And given their behavior, it's almost annoying to me that the local news isn't reporting spikes in cases! Lol.

Anyway, I guarantee most of those same people also don't think anything about the protests other than whatever Fox News tells them.

I should really consider moving away from this particular shit-hole suburb of Dayton just to be around more like-minded people. I saw a LOT of Trump signs in 2016.

[OverBurn]

24. The polls said we would win last time. Quite frankly I'm at the end of my rope.

I badly want him gone, I've never hated another human being more. My growing pessimism tells me he will still be here. I'm losing hope in America for the first time in my life, I'm in my mid fifties.

[Sugarcoated]

25. It's a fine line

but we have to believe he can be beaten while not getting overconfident. It won't be easy but we WILL win.

[customerserviceguy]

26. Exactly

It was assuming that Hillary Clinton had it in the bag that gave some sort of perverse permission for some Bernie Sanders supporters to vote for Trump, just to trim her margin of victory. And that backfired on all of us big time.

Your words of caution are well written, and should be heeded.

[PatrickforO]

27. Well, Vegas has him winning by a narrow margin.

So yeah, let's not be stupid here.

Let's play it like we're five points behind.

[Butterflylady]

28. I totally understand what you're saying and why.

But I will be not be negative in any way. I will stay positive. We will get the vote out. We will have a winning nominee and we will work harder then ever to make this happen. We will win. We will end this lunacy and we will have President Biden next year.

[DSandra]

29. Remember how dirty the Republicans are, and the consequences of losing in November

The consequences being the full death of democracy, and possibly the Democratic Party and total societal submission to Darth Trump and Emperor Putin.

[DSandra]

30. Also, you can expect that Trumps Brownshirts will hunt down anyone opposing him

And intimidate them into submission (or worse) if he wins in November.

[samsingh]

32. the election is about voting out the repug party - the party of drumpf - at all levels

i think its important to recognize that we have to get out the vote, but also that trump is likely to lose. However, he must lose decisively so that his power base is destroyed. Also, we need to overwhelm at the Senate level and win as many seats as possible. We also have to win State houses and governor ships so that the repugs can't gerrymander state seats in the upcoming redistricting process. This is vital. That's how they weakened Obama in 2010.

We have to overwhelmingly win so that we can repair that destruction the repugs have created under trump and earlier under george w.

[we can do it]

33. He is going to get beaten in November.

[BannonsLiver]

34. Conversely

We also need to stop with the doomsaying and 1968 nonsense. It’s all defeatist shite.

[Mike 03]

35. Thank you.

[Mike 03]

36. I'll work harder if I think we're going to win.

And I think we're going to win. That's just my psychology. So I'm going to work hard and believe we're going to win.

Look at the White House surrounded by guards this morning. No presidency can survive such a photograph.
