How You Win an Election

Dear Dingo:
You seem to have less to say these days. Any suggestions for the large pile of Democrats throwing themselves into the upcoming presidential election??

Answer:
Avoid using your brain. Long complicated platforms with boring logical solutions don't matter to anyone anymore. Just keep it simple stupid.

1- Nobody will change a rabid Trump supporters mind. Nobody. You could post billboards with pictures of Trump eating babies all over the USA, and it would just be a waste of time.

2- Nyet, Nyet Putin net. Just hire a handful of those Silicon Valley Whiz kids to block the damn Russians already.

3- Consult with Steve Bannon. He is the one who knew to tap into racist fears, then produce a silly chant like: "Build the Wall". What else do uneducated swing voters fear?  Perhaps zombies. Then scream:  "Zap the Zombies" !

4- Campaign ads accomplish nothing. All those billions of dollars would be better spent  sending every household in a swing state some ranch dressing and a picture of a puppy.
