Can you make it?

Can the country make it?

What could possibly happen between now and then?

What should Democrats do between now and election time?

What if the unthinkable happens and Republicans maintain control of everything?

Should these questions not be asked? Are they too "negative", too "Debby Downer"?

1. I think we all ask ourselves those same questions every day, so definitely not a Debby Downer.

2. I spoke to a 55 year old woman (approx) that I know yesterday

She said that she has not voted in 30 years. But has already registered to vote in the next set of elections.

Her apathy is over as I think quite a few others are the same way.

3. i have no doubt trump will use war to further this republican nightmare

5. That's a scary thought...

...but highly likely, I would agree.

4. We need to out-organize and out-fox Pizzagaters and Weak National Security-ists

Who think it's "better" if the mass shooter is white.

Vote
Vote for the Democrat
Make sure the disenfranchised can vote, combat voter suppression

Either way, win or lose, we need to start defending our fellow Americans from things like our own government's "war on (some) drug (user)s" and defending ourselves and our fellow Americans FROM the "greatest healthcare system in the world"... and that should start today.

6. Seven months

and three days, actually.

7. Even less than 8 months

Can you make it? Yes

Can the country make it? Yes

What could possibly happen between now and then? alien invasion, Zombie Apocalypse, business as usual, nothing...

What should Democrats do between now and election time? Stop worrying more about the last election than the upcoming one. Encourage people to vote

What if the unthinkable happens and Republicans maintain control of everything? Prepare for 2020. Learn from mistakes

Should these questions not be asked? Are they too "negative", too "Debby Downer"? They simply point out the world is how it is, not how we want it to be

8. My biggest fear is the idiot will actually meet Kim, piss him off and

we'll be incinerated before Dear Leader (ours, not theirs) gets back on Air Force One.

9. Where did the extra month come from?

Its only 7 months and a couple of days. A total of 217 days to be exact.

10. I do not believe we have until Nov. He will do something, and western civilization will be gone. -nt
