Whoever wins needs to make their G.E. campaign about making America a better place

And not just try to make it a referendum about Trump. We need to focus on BETTER jobs, sustainable, accessible education and health care. We need to talk about numbers and show our homework.

I admit it. I am still angry and upset that it seems like there were more Trump signs than Hillary signs at the 2016 Democratic convention. That they were "anti-Trump" signs is not the point.

The Democratic Party CANNOT make that mistake again. We cannot fight Trump in the gutter. That is his battlefield, his home. He was trained by the best in dirty politics (Roy Cohn, Roger Stone).

Please, people, don't fall into poll traps. Don't kid yourselves into believing that just because you, and a lot of people you know, don't want to see him re-elected that means he is going to lose. The electoral college is STILL in place, and the impeachment, while warranted, will help him more than hurt him. This is a crisis, one we are losing and will lose if we are not vigilant.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:

This election is likely to be cast as a referendum on Trump and we need to be prepared for that.
