17. We have to capitalize on people's troubles

If we don't, things just get worse.

I'm torn all the time between feeling trauma from all the suffering happening fearing that which is yet to come. But it has to get bad, especially to Trump voters, before we can turn this around. Many of these people are not critical thinkers or politically engaged, and will only get it when it hurts them AND they understand who did it to them.

So let's get to it, capitalize every chance we get.

Despite other posters in this thread, I still think there is potential for Texas to turn purple. At least to gain more seats in Congress. Statewide races are a stretch. But unprecedented things are going to happen.
