I haven’t seen any protests that warrant that kind of response. I do think people going to town halls and putting pressure on their representatives is a lot more effective and if they keep that up you may have a chance of getting Congress to act.
You are promoting yourself and someone else saying something inflammatory without substantiating it. So, do you want this to happen? Are you trying to get likes? What is your expertise and what is your game here?
If he crosses that line, the entire country shuts down. I think you’d see millions protesting. The US is maybe the least likely place where this could work. That’s my hope anyways.
The optimist in me says you’re right. America is always tough when she needs to be. If citizens are attacked by this gang of billionaire buffoons, we will experience a level of collective patriotism not seen since 9/11.
Trump will have Russian military occupying our country and patrolling our streets. He will not stop at any cost. He wants to own America. He has already declared himself King. He promised firing squads and a bloodbath during his campaign.
I said “his power is predicated on popular support.” I didn’t say “of him.” His popularity is only relevant anymore as it relates to elected republicans. And I can guarantee you that if things continue to spiral, it will mean a great deal.
There are a small number of fanatics that have wrested control of the government, with Trump as their figurehead. Do you think these career republicans want any of this? They’re scared of his base. The second that support evaporates, he’s useless.
Exactly. Hang every job loss, disease outbreak, laughable government failure, price increase, Nazi salute, hate crime, and the rest on them. One of the dumbest moves the Democrats did these last 8 years was try to separate Trump and what it did was absolve them while costing them nothing. No more.
Democrats are terrible at playing hard ball. Rather than tank the Republican brand, they kept looking to create "permission structures" to get good Republicans to vote Dem.

So focus on Republicans with the vitriol even more than Trump, to build on your point.
Criticize the Republicans, make them own it at every turn, every day
