As I see it, the number one challenge for our grassroots over the next 18 months will be to remain aware enough of what MAGA is doing to respond as needed with specific things, but to not allow ourselves to become overwhelmed by the tornado of bullshit that will be flying at us from every conceivable direction. We are going to have to focus on the task at hand… Blocking, and tackling… Postcards, texting, phone calls, donations, canvassing… And it is absolutely imperative that we keep feeding ourselves every last grain of information about what Joe and team Democrats are doing well and reminding ourselves and our spheres of influence that we aren’t just fighting against a bad cause, but also for a good cause. Trump and the Republicans strategy is going to be to try to get us all in a doomsday spiral, and too many goddamn people on our side are so terrified that if we aren’t inundated with how terrible everything is that we won’t do the work. I personally believe that leads to more paralysis… Buckle up… We have to learn how to focus our attention on constructive things, and limit our attention given to the insanity that they are going to be engaging in, because we simply can’t fucking control it, and it is 100% designed to make us feel helpless and terrified. Don’t give in to this tactic… Every time you feel scared, shift your attention towards some thing you can do that will help. #GameOn.

We need an opposition group to Maga. The Allies or The Allied Forces is a historical reference that we can proudly get behind. So many segments of the American opposition to Maga, like all the countries in WWII. The objective of this group is to save the country from the evil Maga,and those who’s aim is to take away out our hard won freedom and enslave us to their radical view of the world. Start this Simon. You have the platform and the experience to build a new coalition and a new hope.
