This is from the Joy Reid Show this morning.... One of the guests remarked that she had enough of Michelle Obama's quote from the Democratic Convention..."When they go low , we go high." The guest said this needs to be changed to "When they go low..WE BURY THEM!" I couldn't agree more. Enough of this effort to "appeal to the better angels of their nature." As a party, I feel we need to be focused and determined and we need a "take no prisoners" approach. Enough of this trying to play nice. We cannot normalize 45 or this administration.

Excellent. Also it is something to counter those who say "When they go low we should too"

I don't know where he stole it from, but:
Never appeal to someone's better nature. They may not have one.

When they lie, bury them in truths.
When they cheat, bury them in litigation.
When they slander, bury them in shame.
When they go racist, bury them in disgrace.
When they go ignorant, bury them in science.
When they go emotional, bury them in their own emotions.
