When barely 50% of voters show up to vote it's easy to rig elections as we have seen, time and time again.

Seriously, every single day there should be a group of Dems on the news somewhere talking about treason. Let's stop being nice.

(14,154 posts)Even if it might be criticized as a little on the showmanship side. We can't be afraid of using what works for Trump. Adopt the most lethal of their tactics, without having to even lie while you do.
Go "over the top". Be accused of being "overly dramatic" etc. And when that happens, guess what?...you double down. The only way the Great Unknowings that don't even bother to vote will look up from their iPhones is when Democrats, not just a few, but all of them hold individual news conferences in their own ridings as well as in Washington. Start acting like it is one of the most serious threats to the democracy in a long time , if ever. And if the Repukes want to fight that stance, then they are the enemy along with Russia, and should hence forth be called such. Along with Fox News.
