(1/3) To my fellow Dems who actually want to win in 2020:
1. Come to grips NOW with how entrenched racism and misogyny is in many key states. This isn't 2008.
2. Understand that millions of people in FL, NC, AZ, OH, MI, WI, and PA do not see Trump the way we do. They like him.

(2/3) 3. In our HISTORY, no incumbent president with a decent economy has EVER been defeated. Repeat that.
4. If you think you can simply ignore all of the voters who voted for Trump, you are dead wrong. You cannot "turn out" & solve that problem.
5. National polls mean nothing.

(3/3) 6. Stop bitching about how things should be (ie the electoral college), and start accepting that those are the rules for 2020 and we have to adapt to them.
7. Understand that if you don't win, you can never govern, even if you have great policies.
8. Don't fuck it up.
