I understand that some people are still in shock over 2016 but this is a new year and a new election. I am all for being real about our prospects, but things look very good for us right now. I encourage everyone that is nervous to donate to our candidates and volunteer. We are way more motivated than we were in 2016 and the Deplorables know it which is why they want to stop us from voting. Don't get discouraged.
