You’ve probably seen a text similar to this over the past few days, if you’re a Democrat.* What you probably didn’t know – I certainly didn’t, but now I can’t wait to try it – is that if you respond with something snarky, a real live human on the other end will actually see it and maybe even respond… which is exactly what happened to reader Matt (@_weedie21), who lamented the Eagles loss to the only Cowboys fan Hillary supporter on Earth:
That’s… a vote for Trump.
*Donald Trump maybe had a shot to win the election, but his lack of a ground game might be what does him in. The Democrats are super advanced, sending automated texts to get out the vote. At this point, it’s all about turnout, and the Democrats are simply doing a better job of this.
