Troll in Chief will stomp workers and businesses for revenge against Canada.

h/t Parnas Perspective, Canada.

It’s all about Don-Don, our degenerate baby man in charge.

I love Canada using Ronald Reagan to troll Donald Trump (see video in the link to Parnas Perspective below).

I heard something about the Toronto Bluejays trolling Trump with Reagan then saw the Parnas Perspective this morning.

Of course, Trump responded in his typical way.

I don’t hate Donald Trump, but I think he sucks at his job. He said he was going to drain the swamp but he made himself King of the Swamp Monsters instead.

I prefer a President who isn’t a pathological liar or an infomercial con-artist. In other words, I prefer every other United States President of my lifetime.

It took Donald Trump to make me appreciate Ronald Reagan. I hated Ronald Reagan. I believed in Reagan, then felt betrayed. Beirut and Iran-Contra deepened my sense of betrayal.

Donald Trump got me elected to public office. I never thought I was qualified to hold public office until Trump got elected in 2016. Trump made me realize anyone… anyone could get elected, if they had the right organization.

Democrats had a tendency not to show up for local elections, not to pay attention. In April 2017, Dems could barely wait for the opportunity to say NO to Trump. In conservative Vernon Township, where Republicans ran unopposed four years before, the Vernon Township Democratic slate started a Blue Wave that overturned Republican control of Lake County for the first time in almost 100 years.

After we won every contested office, Dems reduced the property tax levy and increased social services.

Four years later Democrats ran unopposed.

Trump made me nostalgic for the Hollywood Actor who knew how to play the part. As a public servant, I appreciated the validity of Reagan’s message that taxes could be reduced without hurting social services if we cut corruption and waste. On a local level, this proved true. It’s time again to hear his message about markets and for everyone to wake up and see that we have a corrupt incompetent President who uses his power to leverage pay-to-play and filling the deep dark hole in his soul with appeals to his vanity and ego.

He’s sick. I’ll pray for him, but I also think we should move past his failures and his enablers. It is time for Truth and Reconciliation. Let’s end these toxic policies and divisions that hurt our Republic.

We can yet be the shining city on a hill, instead of the gaudy status symbol of a degenerate, pathetic man.

Friends, colleagues, fellow citizens… support Gloria Witt for Congress in southside Virginia.

The Coordinated Dream Team in southside Virginia… Kamala Harris (Tim Walz), Tim Kaine, and Gloria Witt.

When I came to Danville, Virginia in 2008, we pulled off one of the biggest upsets in decades. We won the deep red 5th District by about 800 votes. The record turnouts in Danville had a lot to do with it. Barack Obama at the top of the ticket had a lot to do with it, but that’s not the whole story. Me and Marcus Hughes having conversations in Cardinal Village (walking into the middle of a gun battle one time) had a lot to do with it. Bryant Hood and Steph Spissu getting out at midnight in the 6th Ward to make sure the right door hangers were in place after a report about Republicans switching them up… that had a lot to do with it.

We met many new voters and people that hadn’t voted in a long time. They were excited about Barack Obama, but they didn’t know that Tom Perriello was going to help Barack in the Congress until we had those conversations.

Volunteers walking their home turf in every part of Danville. That had everything to do with it. Felicia King and her crew of teenagers in 11. Ms. Virginia in 6. Ms. Gloria working the front desk. The ladies that ran the Danville Voter Contact Machine phone bank… that had more than a lot to do with it.

But we also had conversations with Republicans and won their votes. They thought Barack was going to raise taxes. They didn’t know he was raising the top rate and was going to give them the largest payroll tax cut in history. They found out Barack was running to put money in their pockets, just as Kamala, Tim Kaine, and Gloria Witt are fighting for working people today.

We brought people together and pulled off an upset and we’re getting the band back together to do it again.

I’m down here helping my friend Joshua Norris. I met him while he was volunteering in 2008 and now he’s campaign manager for Gloria Witt. We’re both doing whatever we can to build back the Danville Voter Contact Machine. At minimum, we will get extra votes for Kamala and the Tims (Walz and Kaine) but it would be especially meaningful to win this Congressional seat again.

The Dems haven’t won it since 2008, but we have a good candidate that can draw a broad coalition and pull off the upset. We want Kamala to win but we also want to make sure she has the people in Congress that will help give working families a #BetterDeal.

Help us help them. I have phone calls to make and doors to hit, so please pass this blog around your personal network and help us support the organizing work that will make this deep red seat blue… again.

We have a chance to make history and do what’s best for our country.
