And I do understand that this government of t-rump lies and do fake polling and reports. They also steal and cheat. Whomever the Democratic nominee is, the Democrats will come together en masse.

EC's is the prize . . .

Corporate media are owned by Republicans.

I don't believe it. We are being gaslighted at every turn. Never believe their propaganda. They only mean to demoralize and throw us off. This is part of their game.

Hopefully this national poll is an outlier and not a trend, but we need to be laser focused and in no way assume we have 2020 in the bag. We most definitely don't have a cakewalk ahead of us in 2020. It's going to be dirty, ugly and a hard fought battle to beat Trump.

I know this sounds like crazy talk to many thinking people (I'm right there with you), but the problem is a lot of the rest of the population doesn't pay attention or care about anything other than what their peers are pushing to them in local conversations and on social media.

Exhaustedly,
Cats

Which most definitely works into the hands of those looking to destroy all established and burgeoning democracies.

Sadly, it appears to be working on a global level. It's up to us to keep it from taking out our bastions here in North America. Right now the United States of America is in a position to send a message to all the anti democracy players globally next year. The test will be if we're up to the task or not. I deeply hope we can be wise enough to not mess up this crucial moment in our history.
