      Ding ding ding.

      These were the same exact people that helped Trump win.

      Defeatism was beaten into us by defeat after defeat after blatantly undemocratic defeat.

      And it’s just electoral defeatism. You can’t beat the master at his own game because he’s the one that makes the rules.

      Try a little revolutionary optimism instead.
