David Plouffe discussed his new book, 'A Citizen's Guide to Beating Donald Trump', which was said to provide guidance on how to defeat the president in the upcoming election.

He's got a book called A Citizen's Guide to Beating Donald Trump.
Episode: “Whistle while you spy.”
It was said to be an answer to the question of what the public can do to help beat Trump, with an emphasis on taking ownership of the election and encouraging active participation beyond just voting.
So I'm simply saying, first of all, from someone who's run presidential campaigns, why volunteer work is important. The difference it can make. How you registering five voters in Michigan may not seem like a lot. But if just 2,000 other people in Michigan did the same thing, that's like the win margin in Michigan. So it matters.
What can you control? That's different for everybody, but I lay out a set of ideas for, and again, it's not all the ideas, but you know, creating your own content. So if you've got a neighbor who voted for Trump was voting for Obama, take your phone out, film them, put it on your social media channels. Like just, you've got to like every day think through what can I do?
I think that the ownership, I'd say the ownership we all have to take over this election is even greater than we saw in our organization in the Obama races. I really do.
