No it's been programmed for over a century to fear solutions there is no left in america and you can't fight the fascism with the system that causes it

Exactly! Too many lawyers/law firms, higher education institutions, CEOs, & average people are keeping silent or, in many cases kowtowing to Trumusk and the oligarchs! Will the USA survive as a democratic republic or become an autocratic oligarchy? BE THE OPPOSITION!

I get confused by your posts some days. Talk of standing up and fighting, then half way out the door to not America. Pick one, please.

Yes

Looking in from Canada, it seems clear that the answer is "no" - the politicians won't do it, the "justice" system won't do it, and not enough of the people will do it 😔

It looks like you've already found out. No, you don't. I'm not sure that we Australians would do much better, sadly - I hope we never have to try.

Looking from abroad, it looks like everyone is being taken peacefully to the detention centres and deportation flights. Not much resistance to ICE and DHS.
The first military base has been converted to a detention centre. Soon they will have room for everyone they want.
But you just need a spark.

I've wondered the same thing. The nazi republican party is counting on us to get use to the idea & settle down where protesting is concerned & just accept the inevitable. We must remember what we lose where civil rights are concerned, our daughters & grand daughters will lose for a lifetime.

And re-elected...
I hope when Americans begin to feel the impacts of the tariffs, & see reputational harm Trump's actions have had in his first 100 days, you will call the GOP to account untill they rein him in
Better yet actually impeach him & then also his more dangerous sidekick, Vance, too.

Since he still has an approval rating at all make me think there is no hope. Praying I’m wrong.

According to PPP's latest poll, American voters prefer getting stuck in the middle seat to Donald Trump, 45 percent to 43 percent, and Trump only beats bedbugs by 22 percentage points....

— though among black and Latino voters, not only bedbugs beat Trump, but also the bubonic plague, mosquitoes, Ryan Lochte, and carnies.

Just a lil hope 💙

They (specifically white people) do not have what it takes. They want Black, Indigenous, and Latino people to do all the work for them.

I don't believe Americans have it in them to fight fascists. They will bend the knee first.
