34. But, but. . .our cool tweets.

We get it even on DU. People saying don't be such a worry wart. Don't worry we got this.

Then we get a dozen posts about clever tweets that are really hurting trump. Yeah. We hurt his feelings and he appoints six more teenage judges for life. Boy we really got him there.

Every day we need to be doing. Donating. And we need to be demanding that our elected Democrats start being smarter. If the republicans are smart enough to figure out how to destroy the democracy, couldn't our Democrats be smart enough to know it is coming?

That is what the "doomsday" projections are about. Figuring out what the enemies of the people might do and thwarting it, rather than waiting until the day after and saying "Who would have imagined?".

Sorry to harsh the buzz of the Pollyana crowd. Reality is a bitch.
