When they go low, DON'T BACK DOWN

[LaydeeBug]

Because slowly but surely, relentlessly, they are trying to let the Gaslight in...

"Reach out to them"

"Hone your message"

"Lick your wounds"

"Our victory should have been so big that they could not have stolen it" (so it's our fault)

"We need younger Dems"

"DU isn't 'big enough' or 'important enough' for a Russian hack on election day. Stop saying they did that here"

"They may have hacked our voter files, infiltrated the GOP fer sure, set up thousands of fake news sites, micro targeted regions with precision, but DON'T YOU DARE say they hacked any of our voting machines. THAT is impossible. In fact, prove it. Prove they did that. And they would have HAD to hack them all, so if they didn't hack THIS one, they didn't hack any of them. Ever. Stop saying that. Hone your message"

By now, my message is pretty well honed, motherfucker.

Each of the quotation marked statements mark another way they enable the ones who are trying to frame the fucking narrative.

They are enabling those who are trying to normalize this.

Our Constitution is NOT etched in stone. It's written on paper. It is a BREATHING document, and if we need a new election...if we need to implement some new way because our ELECTION WAS RIGGED BY THE RUSSIANS and they committed TREASON to do it, we will be able to remedy this.

Something beautiful is going to come from this...

RESIST!!!

1. True. The tendency of Democrats, being interested in governing,

and being not batsh*t crazy like the alt-right, is to try to get along to further governing, to blame themselves.

In the face of the constant fake news, the false conspiracy theories being floated by Trump and co-conspirators, the constant attempts at deflection, it's critical to stand firm and relentlessly fight back in legal ways.

IMO, we are fighting for the democracy of the country.

Who's to blame? The people who voted for Trump, who was obviously unfit for office. True, the Russians infiltrated their ranks and worked them up to a frenzy, but each of us is responsible for our vote. Any idiot could see Trump and his "THIS ELECTION IS RIGGED!" con artist tactics.

5. Ain't that the truth, we really are fighting for our democracy. nt

2. Good job!

3. Amen to that

[ProudLib72]

4. Yes

Trying to distract from Russian interference by offering all these excuses is exactly what Putin wants. They aren't even aware that he is controlling their narrative for them.

6. They think they were helped, when in fact, they've been had. nt

7. Thank you. All votes for trump or 99% were based in racism, period

BTW, if Pence becomes president, he believes women are inferior and wont sit down to a meeting with a woman without men there to make sure the woman has no independent power

Pence does not belong in the WH, Hillary won the popular vote and the EC , too bad russian agents on the ground flipped all those votes in those states.

10. Notice Pence won't dine with other women, but my gaydar goes BOOM with him

I'm just sayin'...

[greytdemocrat]

12. Hey

What do you have against gays, Ms. dar???

[LaydeeBug]

13. Not one single thing all the live long day. My gaydar was honed by some FIERCE Divas

and I was taught.

Of course, I *do* understand why no one would want him in their club. I get it. I'm just sayin'...

8. Recommended.

I boxed more than 300 bouts. I can honestly say that I did not intentionally foul any opponent, unless they first fouled me intentionally. In those cases, I did not limit myself to returning the "favor" in equal measure.

[LaydeeBug]

11. Exactly. Why bring a knife to a gun fight? nt
