We also have to overcome gerrymandering, which SCOTUS just said is legal (as long as the GOP pretends to disenfranchise people for political reasons rather than racial ones). At the same time, we need to overwhelm voter suppression with enough genuine votes that it isn’t effective. Same with the Electoral College, the illegitimate Supreme Court, and the Senate, which gives outsized influence to big, empty Red States and fight against the unlimited flow of dark money in politics…
It can all still be done, but we have to all vote, donate, and volunteer, as well as be unified as you said. My big unity wish is messaging. No one can compete with Fox News because Right Wing media is very good at staying on-message and we’re a “big tent” party, but still; we have to be better at it…
Racial gerrymandering is, but you can say you’re drawing districts specifically to help your party win and that’s not illegal. At least not at the federal level. Your state might have better rules.
I’d argue that we can beat them from any position, as long as we do it in unity.

None of that is going to happen. The empire would rather fall. - History.
Not with that attitude.

Yes, please focus on the thing that needs a constitutional amendment to change, and not the thing that has more popular support.
