I can't accept that Trump was "a threat to democracy" before the election and now he is welcome with a handshake and silence. At least continue to warn the people and talk about what can be done by America to hold the lunatics to account. Don't just walk away.

(10,402 posts)move into the nightmare of Trump part 2 on steroids, we need to be assured that Democratic lawmakers and leaders are going to be speaking out and resisting. This is no time for them to go radio silent. It is a time to be outspoken and critical of every move Trump makes.

(55,848 posts)desperation and urgency on November 5th... We really could have used it. 😔
Say what you will about Trumpers, but at least they get their asses to the polls every time, all the time without fail. They don't ever try to "send a message" by staying home or voting for some third party chaos agent... My ex-gf had the unmitigated gall to write in Cornel Fucking West because she said "both choices were terrible"... Trumpers on the other hand take every race seriously with a do-or-die mindset... There's something Dem voters could learn from them.
