Literally plan A is to fucking steal the election... They spent the last 4 years brainwashing The Base to believe the election was stolen so that they can do it brazenly this time and they'll feel justified in doing it...
I'm generally a pessimistic person, but I see absolutely no way that we win this...
People say vote in numbers that can't be ignored, except we never vote in those kinds of numbers and with Trump not being in office and the collective amnesia we seem to have about how terrible he was, I don't see turnout being that great this time around...
Abortion will carry democrats across the line in Georgia, North Carolina, and Arizona. Mark my words
Sure, the abortion issue will result in Democrats getting more actual votes. However:
Carrying across the line isn't good enough. It needs to be resounding.
The goal is a repeat of Bush V Gore where in this case Trump leads early on and then the assholes in Georgia call foul on some district essentially hitting pause where Trump was ahead they then petition the SCOTUS to give them a ruling to stop counting after X time as it will now be considered "too long after the election."
