So we can't just depend on them alone to stop Trump. That's why I've decided to appoint myself, as of this moment, chair of the "Shadow Campaign to Defeat Donald J. Trump" (or, in short, "The Resistance") -- and I'm appointing each and every one of you as my Precinct Captains in the areas where you live, work and go to college. From this moment forward you will organize the block you live on, or the town or neighborhood you live in, or your dorm, your office, or your place of worship. If asked, just identify yourself as the "Local Head of the Defeat Trump Coalition." If others want to be the "Head" or say they are the "Head," just share the title with them. Then appoint more Precinct Captains. Don't hold meetings. Do actions. Use humor. Conduct flash mobs. Be a disruptor. Think creatively and subversively. Have fun. Defeat Trump.
Because, you see, we have no choice. We're in the Trump Resistance.
Yours in revolution and future playdates,
Michael Moore
P.S. Still feeling giddy about all the bad news surrounding Trump this week? Here's another bucket of cold water: Trump can actually lose Florida, Virginia, Colorado and New Mexico -- and STILL WIN! All he has to do is carry the rust belt "Brexit States" of Ohio, Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin. Hillary lost three of these four in the primaries. Nothing can be taken for granted. Once more: This is all about who shows up November 8th -- not who's ahead in the popularity polls right now. On the morning of the Michigan Primary, Hillary was ahead of Bernie in a WJBK/TV2-Detroit poll by 22 points. Twelve hours later, she lost. Leave your bubble now! You are a Precinct Captain! You have work to do!
