It's not cliche, we need African Americans to turn out in Presidential election year numbers to win back control of Congress in 2022, and the fact that there are critical races in critical states where African American leadership is on the ballot is key.
And we also need the Latino turnout. Arizona is a key state for that, along with Texas. The polling data looks pretty good from both place. It needs to be much higher.
We need more than the Lincoln project to be putting out those devastating ads. They need to be everywhere all the time. This summer is a crucial time during which Democrats need to put Republicans on their heels. And it would be a wonderful summer to have FP45 on his heels, backed up to the wall on January 6th. An August conviction would be great.
