Considering the outcomes in the midterm, I think you may be a little overly pessimistic. Not that it will be easy, largely for the reason you mentioned, but with the purpling of Arizona and Texas, the move to restore the franchise to felons in Florida and the anti-gerrymandering bills working their way through (or passed by) several states, I am considerably more optimistic about it than you seem to be. I could see a unified Democratic government in 2020 if we keep up the pressure. A lot to ask over the next 2 years, which will unquestionably contain a buttload more fuckery from Il Douche, but it should be doable.
