I know it is.
But the vast majority of Americans have no idea that that's the case.
You're trying to fight a battle today that was lost in 2016. Trump won. McConnell fucked everyone. Trump gets to name at least 2 SCOUTS justices. Fin.
The roadmap to winning 2018 is sitting their in the polling numbers, and you folks all want to ignore it to have a fight that 1) was already lost, and 2) my lovely, well-intentioned, but frankly sort of dumb aunt has no idea about and doesn't care about. But you can be damned sure when the GOP starts talking about baby killers again, she'll at least hear them.
