3. I still believe any real rally must have two things to work

1. It's got to be from the bottom-up instead of the top-down

2. It's got to be 100 fucking percent unified along a single idea, which is eliminating Trump AND Trumpism. It can't be "I hate Trump but I'll only join in if the Dems also center MY pet issue!" Because Repubs have been exploiting pet issues on the left to divide our support for decades now and it still keeps happening... And elected Dems need to stop straddling the fence with "I may hate Trump but I have to temper my comments because my seat is purple!"
