Believe Trump when he says that he will burn the country down before accepting the verdict of voters.  On top of that transparency, we have a Democratic Party that is giving Trump and opening by running the always terrible "50% plus 1, Chase the Moderates" strategy.    When the time comes:

• Stop Buying
• Empty your Accounts (stack up cash) 
• Be Prepared

How it will probably go down via Slate:

It is the late evening of Nov. 3, 2020—Election Day. The race is tight. It’s come down to the three states that President Donald Trump barely won in 2016: Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin. Most in-person votes have been counted, and Trump holds a small lead in each state. But there are millions of mail-in ballots that election officials have not yet processed. Hundreds of thousands of voters dropped their ballots in the mail days ago, but they haven’t been received. Meanwhile, thousands of ballots that were mailed in time have been rejected due to alleged technical defects. The outcome of the election turns on all these outstanding votes. But Trump, on the basis of the results so far, declares victory and dismisses the remaining mail-in ballots as fraudulent and illegitimate. The Republican-controlled legislatures of all three states agree, assigning their electoral votes to the president. Trump has secured a second term in the White House.  

 

Every national election in my adulthood, the Democratic Party has chased 1o million or so "swing" voters who claim to be "moderate" while leaving 100 million eligible but disenfranchised voters…

Pretty good. The young women from AZ who's Dad died from trusting Trump was a standout.   Michelle Obama was great.  She really drives conservative insane, which is a nice bonus.  The "Republicans" didn't bother me much.  It felt like a perfunctory nod to the nation's 3,500 remaining "centrists".  According to Nate Silver the states that will decide the election this year are Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and Florida.  Every election is a "base turn out election" because THERE ARE NO UNDECIDED VOTERS, so I wonder how well this played in terms of firing up the base in this states?  

Check this shit out. Utterly disgusting. If the Democratic Party ever tried to get Demcocrats to vote in large numbers - it would be impossible for Republicans to win. Instead we ALWAYS get this shit. Chasing after 1,500 "swing" voters while telling tens of thousands of liberal Democrats to go fuck themselves.

With Trump openly saying that he is planning to steal the election, Americans need to be prepared to shut the economy down completely if that happens. We'll need unionized and non-unionized workers alike to take part. This cannot be outsourced.  Blue collar and white collar workplaces must participate.   Everyone who claims to love the country will be needed to stop another illegitimate term by Trump.  The front line of this fight is your front door. The picket line is the "Buy Now" button on that web page. Don't cross it.     Our economic activity is our leverage and all economic activity must grind to a halt across entire communities.  Stocks are the only measure of economic well-being that matters to policy makers - so the stocks prices must collapse. Everyone must answer another fraudulent election with a wholesale vote of no-confidence by removing there labor and their dollars from this economy.

There is an email going around from Coons' field director, Brian Holajter, in which poor Brian is freaking out. It is hard to know if it is a genuine freakout or a showy freakout intended to scare the troops into re-doubling their efforts to keep the GOP's favorite Democrat in the Senate. If it is not real, it should be. I've mentioned this before but I think the overlapping progressive primary challengers are likely to boost turnout in New Castle county and help Scarane. It is hard to imagine a Marie Pinkney voter "splitting the ticket" to vote for Coons. The same goes for supporters of Larry Lambert, Madinah Wilson-Anton, Eric Morrison, Coby Owens, or Shané Darby. Sure it would have been nice if these campaigns were able to engage in the true canvasing that is the lifeblood of a grassroots campaign, but even without the door knocking, these are the districts with activated progressives: State Senate, District 13 State House, District 7 State House, District 26 State House, District 27 These are the districts that can contribute tipping point turn out to topple Coons and his garbage politics. In part 2 of this post I'll dig into turnout in this districts and try to let Brian know where his freakout meter should be right now.

That's a headline you will never ever fucking read. This the day when you start texting every Delawarean on your contact list to remind them to vote in the primary.…

Already worried, when this race goes national, Coons is going to shit his pants.
