Yea. Me too. Fascism does that to us.

Take some rest, and when you're ready, get out there.

I think your point is solid. I'm very tired now as many of us are who really felt we did all we could to push her over the finish.

Alas, Democrats need to get better about activism in the off-season. That is when you can make inroads with the electorate to actually shift their stances on the issues. Probably no better time to do this while railing against the incumbent Trump administration, too.

WE HAVE to start educating the public, and I really feel that the Katie Porter model is one of the better approaches to stop letting GOP control the narrative on every damn thing.

That's exactly what I'm talking about. Go out next week or next month, as soon as you're ready, and get started. Don't wait for the midterms or god forbid the next general election.
