On CNN's show on trump lies and Impeachment now, they said Nixon
received 10s of thousands of telegrams!
Had to look...you can still send a telegram! Prices vary depending on whether you want someone to sign. like $24-34 dollars plus per word. What would we say? Short and sweet.

8. If I thought it would do any good I would send one.
I wonder if that really would still have an impact now that I think of it. Some people can't "hit the streets" and tweets to the fucking moron (or any of the GOP) are almost meaningless since they are ignored. Maybe the Resistance could get this going if it actually proved to still be effective in 2019/2020? Emails and phone calls are good but a telegram is hardly ever done and it is physical (you can show them to the public...visuals are very helpful). I was watching CNN and I saw the clip of the staff counting Nixon's yellow telegrams. If I noticed it and another DUer did too, than maybe we could be onto a new/old idea.

9. Went to a marketing class where they told us the most
effective way to communicate and get noticed is a hand written, hand-stamped letter. That would be cheaper than a telegram? - but JHC, from what I am seeing telegrams are indeed a dying industry. Which we could probably revive

14. Yup. Like the one worder! And totally agree. Its
got to embody the essence of it all that we feel..plus added bonus - it gets to him.
BTW, Still think we laid down and remained silent when Hillary won the popular vote and no presidency. They would have never ever done that. |
