Trump makes it difficult to collaborate all on his own, without the help of anyone else. Many have said it, and many have nudged it (Murdoch), that it's true, Trump is his own worst enemy. May he continue til he self combusts 🤭

Amen to everything in that piece. Dems need to start working on this project *right now*.

I can't believe we are living in a world where our political choices are between "rule-follower" and "rule-breaker". Is this kindergarten? Do we need to give a sticker to the ones who did the right thing?

It’s critical not to put stickers on a Tesla but to sell it. The dumping kills anyone buying new which is what fuels him with money 💵.

Last fall, Long Island was covered in Cyber Trucks, now you hardly see any, and when you do, someone is cutting them off on the LIE or not letting them merge.

Cut him off bring him down

I can't think of a single world leader who hasn't been weakened after aligning with Trump

If GOP responds to threats of violence from MAGA then our job is to put more fear into them than MAGA does.

Excellent except: "The Obama and Biden emphasis on healing was morally admirable, and arguably politically correct in its time."

Biden's AG Garland dawdling on any tRump prosecution(s) is what got us in the pickle we're in now.

Absolutely yes!! The Dems must have clear message that collaboration with a corrupt administration will have consequences.

buddylove0114.bsky.social•1 day ago

Democrats need to step up and start pushing back! We need strong leadership now!! Good suggestions in here they should start acting upon

Yes, we need to be tough.
If we get tough though, we could become the thing we hate if we are not careful. (See: Israel)
Our leadership will need to cut between enough/too much aggressive rooting out corruption while still holding principles high. Do we fire government employees who we didn’t hire?

Etch-a-Sketch end of the world on EVERYTHING he ever did. All his judges, out. All his EOs out. Any bill he ever signed? Repealed. Erase everything that he was allowed to do. Yes this includes the first term. He never won. Erase him.

bigideakate.bsky.social•1 day ago

But won’t we have to violate our laws and principles to do that? Isn’t that what they did in the first round of firings?
I don’t have the answer- smarter people than me will have to figure this out. But I am worried about us becoming them in the process of “fixing” things.

Pass a law saying that anyone who falsely takes the office will have all their actions reversed. He didn’t win so none of his actions are legitimate.

bigideakate.bsky.social•1 day ago

Do we add seats to the SCOTUS or remove and replace to get that change through?

divaplantalaguna.bsky.social•1 day ago

Remove and replace. None he put on there are legitimate, and we may as well get rid of Thomas and Alito while we’re at it since they’re both corrupt AF.

Agree with much of this, BUT worry that the harder Dems press what will happen to MAGA enablers when Dems take back power, rather than frightening them into good behavior, it will cause them to ramp up efforts to ensure that Dems never take back power. Voter suppression, election fraud, lies, etc.
