7. The Fix Is In....

Fri Feb 21, 2020, 04:02 PM

Feb 2020

Why do you think they thumbed their noses to more witnesses and more evidence in the impeachment trial? Do you think that they cared what the American People would think if they acquitted Trump? They knew there would be no repercussions because the fix was in. They knew Russia would interfere in 2020 and assure them the win in the election - both the WH and maintaining control in the Senate. Mitch didn't have anything to worry about.

Is all hope lost however. I think not - because I still believe if we Dems have a massive turnout - all the voter suppression, gerrymandering, cheating, stealing of votes and foreign influence won't be enough for them to win. Even with all their shennanigans - there is more of us then there are of them.

We can't sit this election out - even if our candidate didn't win the Dem nomination - because if we do we assure them the win.

Our only hope is to "Without A Doubt - Don't Sit This One Out" and "Vote Blue No Matter Who".
