Nov 8

No more debates and no more building GOTV operations that clearly haven't mattered three elections in a row, including in 20 when Biden won with almost no GOTV operation.

Focus that money on building media outreach. Podcasts, TikTok, YouTube, Twitter, Facebook. Talk radio. Put together our own liberal TV network like the three or so that conservatives have now that's dedicated to democratic messaging.

The old tools simply don't work anymore.
