i’m not saying it it wouldn’t do it. I thought you said Congress and we have a maga congressman , but that goes without saying Gillenbrandt & Schumer are ready to do it so not worried there
I've been in this "game" for long enough to know "when to hold 'em, when to fold 'em, when to walk away." As Einstein said: "the definition of insanity is doing the same things over & over, and expecting different results." That said, w/others, we're working on approaching this more effectively. 🙂👍
Won’t matter. Trump will appoint them anyway. And who is going to stop him? This MAGA SCOTUS? Trump is writing his own rules. His own government. Rules, laws, processes, those things won’t matter in Trump’s autocracy.
Sorry but, getting people’s hopes up is only leading them to be let down.
Hopefully the not so trumpian republican senate will refuse to confirm those "not gonna use that language" at all. That's when we'll know if the resistance grew stronger. And stronger it will be, no matter what!
The attitude that we think Congress or others might save us, will only get people harmed or killed. It creates a false sense of security. Then people let their guard down. And it’s why we lost the election. Too many people felt that the rules will stop Trump from being too bad.
No, people not grasping the reality that this election was truly about democracy vs autocracy, is what got Trump elected. People let their guard down thinking Trump will be restrained by the rule of law if he tries something drastic. They didn’t quite grasp what was at stake
I didn’t say to do nothing. But I think people are focusing on the wrong things. Trump will have his cabinet. And it will be just as dangerous as we only hope it won’t be. So, best we can do is to prepare ourselves accordingly.
And I didn’t say to do nothing. But some people are focusing on the wrong things. Trump will have his cabinet. And this SCOTUS isn’t going to stop him. The sooner people start sugarcoating the reality & start coming to terms with what we’re up against, and prepare, the better off we will be.
No, people not grasping the reality that this election was truly about democracy vs autocracy, is what got us in this mess. People let their guard down thinking Trump will be restrained by the rule of law if he tries something drastic. Including our leaders.They didn’t quite grasp what was at stake
Yes. And they did nothing. I find that unacceptable. We have to do everything and anything we are able to hold him in check. If that means writing a letter my Senator won’t read, at least I’ve done something.
Anyway, I suggest you read the link I shared with you. Waiting on someone to save you, and writing strongly worded letters, isn’t the flex you think it is. You’re only making yourself vulnerable.
Well, at least you feel you’ve done something & that gives you a sense of security.
Just fyi…a false sense of security leads to letting your guard down. Thinking someone is going to step up & save us. And with what’s about to unfold, that’s a very dangerous attitude.
I have no intention of letting my guard down. Nor do I have any sense of security whatsoever. I’m going to fight until he and his cult are gone or I take my last breath. Please don’t lecture.

Americans think “that could never happen here.
Afghanistan civilians are like “wanna bet”
We are closer to there than some want to accept.
