Biden, Harris, Walz, Obama, Clinton and the DNC should be organizing a massive protest for Jan. 20

Instead of planning to attend the MAGA coronation. Making this dictator look normal in any way is the wrong approach. Protest instead. And then protest some more. And not just in DC, but all over the country. Let's show the MAGAts what they're really up against, and let's show the world this country ain't all MAGA. Every state democratic leadership should be planning protest events the entire month of January leading up to Jan. 20 and the culminating moment. IMHO, of course.

It's the last "normie" thing our country can do before shifting hard into an oligarchy.

But maybe that's just me.

Stand by as Hitler takes over. Just be nice. We have peace in our time, right Mr. Chamberlain . . . Hitler just wants to make Germany great again.

They still think there's a chance our institutions survive. They are probably wrong about that.
