Yeah. We have to get fired up and actively advocate broadly for the midterms. That is always a given.
However, to ignore the filthy cheating, slimeball conning and treacherous foreign manipulations, hacking and outright blatant criminal activity that gave the election to an incompetent, pathologically lying ignoramus and his slickly chosen treasonous pond scum cronies is to sell the Democratic Party way short and blame the victims.
The reason we had 3 million more votes and were eons ahead in all the poles is because we DID win the election. We DID vote Hillary in. She did win.
The fucking Spooge Republicans and their vomitous comrade pals broke every law/rule/morality and got away with it.
Bastards.
