It comes from Team D losing the championship and then doing Yoga and singing poems instead of announcing an actual plan to improve the game. — PolitiTweet.org

David Hogg ☮️ @davidhogg111

The real threat to enthusiasm and success longterm of Team D comes not from talking about how to improve it comes from continuing to act like they are winning because they “tried” when they lose over and over with little self reflection. — PolitiTweet.org

David Hogg ☮️ @davidhogg111

Team D risks losing their fans because there is no way to grow support losing over and over and only focusing on team R as much as many others don’t like them. — PolitiTweet.org

David Hogg ☮️ @davidhogg111

If Team D would realize they have to do both and accepted they have had a long losing streak and changed strategy they could start winning and stop losing fans. But should team D do nothing they never will win unless team R gets substantially worse. — PolitiTweet.org

David Hogg ☮️ @davidhogg111

Team R lives in reality and doesn’t just pat themselves on the back over and over as they continue to lose. They stop and critically evaluate how they can do better after every game and get different players if they have too. — PolitiTweet.org

David Hogg ☮️ @davidhogg111

Team D) Only focuses on how much they don’t like team B and for fear of hurting team A’s morale and that of the fans they don’t focus on how to get better but lose over and over. Team R) Studies team A and how to improve winning Who wins and keeps the fans? — PolitiTweet.org

Many of you don’t like what I say about the Democratic Party. That’s ok you are entitled to your own opinion. You can disagree with me on this and agree with other things that is ok it’s called nuance. But let me explain my reasoning with a metaphor. — PolitiTweet.org

Also coming from a family of veterans in multiple generations I can tell you as most of them would- the real bad ass navy seals and others are never the ones who make a big deal out of it and brag about it like this guy. — PolitiTweet.org

This is the extremely dangerous type of rhetoric I was taking about. — PolitiTweet.org

David Hogg ☮️ @davidhogg111

See to most this looks like is a guy, running for office calling for what he calls an “army of patriots to what we assume is non violently stand up for what they see as right and vote. But to a some it looks like a sign as a call to arms and violence https://t.co/omt0Eo6z88 — PolitiTweet.org

David Hogg ☮️ @davidhogg111

The reason this issue continues severe lack will and courage of our “leaders” not one solutions or resources. It’s pathetic and it’s getting people killed. — PolitiTweet.org

David Hogg ☮️ @davidhogg111

We have the largest intelligence apparatus in the world, one of if the largest academic apparatus in the world and the most money of any country. This issue is not that we don’t know what to do- is that the people we’ve trusted to act in times of crisis are failing. — PolitiTweet.org

David Hogg ☮️ @davidhogg111

It represents the systemic failure at every level of government, law enforcement and our intelligence community to do their number one job- protecting the American people. — PolitiTweet.org

David Hogg ☮️ @davidhogg111

There have been several dozen terrorist attacks in the past few months waged against us in the form of mass shootings. This is not an issue of “mental health” or doors. This is a major national security issue representing a credible and serious threat to the American people. — PolitiTweet.org

David Hogg ☮️ @davidhogg111

I can respect that we don’t agree- I can’t accept there’s nothing we can do to stop this violence from continuing. — PolitiTweet.org

David Hogg ☮️ @davidhogg111

@Volvonello I got @WalshFreedom to march with us to demand gun safety. If we can do that I think a lot more possible than we think. We need to get everyone we can — PolitiTweet.org

David Hogg ☮️ @davidhogg111

No American republican or democrat wants these terrorist attacks to continue. We must do all we can to prevent it to do that will require us demanding our leaders act loud and clear in a bipartisan effort. Tell them that ⬇️ https://t.co/JE5dXuXBid — PolitiTweet.org

As Americans we need to put our politics aside and stop this madness by working together. This is not going to stop until we do. I don’t hate gun owners- I don’t hate Trump supporters. I hate the fact Americans are dying daily and we are letting our politics stop us from acting. — PolitiTweet.org

Three examples- The buffalo shooters manifesto made expeclict reference to a white genocide The shooter at my high school made many hateful and explicitly racist/xenophobic comments about immigrants and black people The most recent shooter in IL — PolitiTweet.org

Again let me state as CLEAR as possible this is not 99.9% Republicans this is a tiny percent of a percent that is causing this. — PolitiTweet.org

David Hogg ☮️ @davidhogg111

These sound like political rhetoric to many but to those capable of this violence- just like we saw with Q anon they don’t need an explicit endorsement they just need to look for “signs” of why trump is “really” saying which they read as a call to arms. — PolitiTweet.org

David Hogg ☮️ @davidhogg111

By saying things like “they’re rapists, they’re murderers” “grab them by the pussy” “it’s time to take ‘our’ country back” “there’s bad guys on both sides” (when literally one side is nazis) “proud boys stand back and stand by” — PolitiTweet.org

David Hogg ☮️ @davidhogg111

Every rational American on the left and right knows these are lies the problem isn’t so much us- it’s extremist leaders in the Republican Party like Trump and others who don’t counter these lies and may not be saying them as directly but reinforce them with their rhetoric. — PolitiTweet.org

David Hogg ☮️ @davidhogg111

Don’t believe me? I’ve read these mass shooters manifestos they many say some version of the same thing- immigrants are destroying our country, the white race is being obliterated, typically there’s some section on how much they hate women, and more hateful bs — PolitiTweet.org

David Hogg ☮️ @davidhogg111

@Valentine721 It was we passed the first gun law in 30 years and got billions for mental health funding — PolitiTweet.org

David Hogg ☮️ @davidhogg111

but it only takes a few and they have been told for years that “immigrants are coming to destroy and take ‘our’ country” are most stupid enough to believe that? No of course not but it only takes a few disgruntled at risk (mostly young white men with guns) who believe him — PolitiTweet.org

David Hogg ☮️ @davidhogg111

The gun industry and NRA has told people for years that guns are for fighting a tyrannical government and now we have more people armed than ever and a former president who literally says the election was stolen from him. Do the vast majority of GOP or Americans believe him? No — PolitiTweet.org

David Hogg ☮️ @davidhogg111

Luckily there’s a lot of stuff that gets prevented sometimes literally right before it happens that the public never knows about. But the possibility of this happening is still deeply concerning. As we know from the mistakes made with Parkland, law enforcement is far from perfect — PolitiTweet.org

David Hogg ☮️ @davidhogg111

So far these shooters have typically acted on their own but I’m afraid if they aren’t already they will soon start collaborating. — PolitiTweet.org
