Ok, Lefties, let's huddle up.

 *throws an arm around your shoulders & you do the same with the next person*

So, the Veepstakes will end this week or next with an announcement of a woman as a candidate for Vice President of the United States.
(1/ )
That woman is brilliant and has invested her life in bending the arc of the universe towards a more perfect union. Isn't that great? The women who aren't chosen for Biden's running mate are... brilliant!
(2/ )
Each has invested her life in bending the arc of the universe towards a more perfect union. We are gonna celebrate the heck out of that. This is going to be the most Progressive ticket with the most Progressive platform in modern history. (3/ )
You preferred X over Y? C over Biden for president, even? In the primaries? And before the VP announcement? Like me? Oh, well in that case...
(4/ )
WE ARE STILL GONNA CELEBRATE THE HECK OUT OF THE MOST PROGRESSIVE TICKET WITH THE MOST PROGRESSIVE PLATFORM IN MODERN HISTORY. And we're gonna do it online, in solidarity with a spirit of sisterhood and brotherhood in the righteous fight to save the planet...
(5/ )
... (and, not inconsequentially, our little republic). Are we going to actively lobby, demonstrate, and demand that a Biden administration achieves those Progressive goals and surpasses them? Are we gonna do the same with every Democrat in Congress?
(6/ )
We are! Of course we are! AFTER WE WIN THE GENERAL ELECTION. Eyes on the prize: either Joe Biden or Donald Trump will be elected president... end of bloody list.
(7/ )
Everything you, I, we, say, post, and do about this election can either motivate the voters in our lives or DEmotivate them, gain or suppress votes, enthuse or defuse turnout. Remember: the other side is cheating. We need to win by 9-12% in order to actually achieve the win.
(8/
We need to turn out every single vote in every district we possibly can for Joe Biden, and we need to do it in a pandemic. There is no polling model that accurately reflects these given circumstances.  We need every leftie on TEAM SAVE THE WORLD.
(9/ )
And we need every leftie on TEAM AWESOME WOMAN WHO IS BIDEN'S VP CANDIDATE.
(10/ )
It's very easy to do when you're rooted in the intention to save the world, rather than the intention of looking good-er, right-er, or left-er than XYZorBiden. For sure, lob that snark, hold those feet to the fire AFTER WE WIN THE GENERAL ELECTION-I'll be right there.
(11/ )
When the inevitable sexist, catfight-baiting public coverage and private comments come for her, OMG I'm so proud of how YOU are CELEBRATING the smart, effective, ambitious leader woman Biden selected to be Veep!
(12/ )
I love you so hard, and admire your sisterhood, brotherhood, and solidarity! Your discipline to WIN THE GENERAL ELECTION is the stuff of legends & Republicans, but without the cheating & suppression!
(13/ )
I AM MAKING YOU SO MANY CIVIC DUTY COOKIES RIGHT NOW AND THEY HAVE GODDAMNED SPRINKLES ON THEM.
(14/ )
When your kids and grandkids ask me what you did at the precipice of Racist Fascism being re-elected, at this last hope for humans to live and love on this little planet circling an unremarkable star hurtling through an expanding universe, you know what I'm gonna say?
(15/ )
I'm gonna tear up with a proud and shiny face and tell that child how YOU SAVED THE WORLD.

*basks in the fundamental decency, service, skill, and love that is Uncle Joe Biden*

*summons up Megan Rapinoe energy*

Let's F-ing GO!

RAWR!
