Then you know they are hurting, so redouble the fight.

I am reminded of the movie "Gettysburg" (1993) in which Col. Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain (Jeff Daniels) and his men control the heights, but are badly outnumbered and low on ammunition. Nearly out of ammunition, they charge downhill with fixed bayonets.

We've got them on the run. Fix GOTV bayonets (ballots, not bullets)

Wonder Woman will win if we make every effort.
