19. That's the exact mindset that got us in this mess and it's no coincidence.

First I’d point out that that is the exact attitude that got this asshole in the White House, precisely.

He has to know that there are a lot of folks getting paid to hustle that jive.

If we give up there’s absolutely no chance. If we keep hope alive in those moments that we can it’s a shitty situation but it must and will change.

If we never do anything well…Hey let’s not choose that future.

Imagine if the shoe was on the other foot and we elected this stain? Would they give up, does he think?

Think football or soccer or baseball or anything if that helps.
