16. There needs to be group preparation for the socialism fear

Focus groups and whatever it takes. Socialism is going to be abused by Republicans across the country. If we ignore that it will be like ignoring all the ominous indications regarding the white working class vote coming out of the 2014 midterm.

Otherwise, I'd say we need a mocking song in video form, something that will be performed well and spread on social media. There is no way we can counter everything one by one as opposed to dismissing it by blanket mockery.

Something like, "When Donald Trump speaks...what do we hear...lies and fear...lies and fear...lies and fear...lies and fear..."

Dozens of people in the video, dancing and laughing in unison. It would be ideal because Trump hates being laughed at
