Call For Trump's Resignation.....

[global1]

Why isn't there a growing and loud vocal call for Trump's resignation?

Surely we have enough evidence on him that he is not fit to be representing this country.

- his racism
- his treasonous activities with our enemies
- his sexual predatory actions
- his obstruction of justice
- his lies
- his inciting violence
- his white nationalism
- etc, etc, etc

What are we waiting for? Why can't the people of this country get it together and force Trump from office?

And why do the Repugs continually circle the wagons around him and protect him.

Every day in plain site of all of us - this person commits these acts in broad daylight.

Why is it we let him get away with all of this?

[dewsgirl]

1. Resignation equals prison. He knows this very well. He won't resign, mark my words.

[dewsgirl]

3. I do understand where you are coming from though. Several times #trumpresign, other varieties of

this have trended on twitter, there have been protests. I don't think any of it would even matter as far as him leaving unfortunately.

[global1]

5. Even If He Won't Resign Isn't It Important That We Keep That Pressure On Him To Resign?.....

Won't that open a lot of eyes of the American People? Won't just the fact that the American People are calling for his resignation have impact on him not being re-elected?

Should we give him a pass because we feel, know or realize that he won't resign?

Are we going to normalize this behavior too?

[dewsgirl]

7. No, you are right. The pressure needs to be kept up. I worry that those that support him

will support him until it affects them personally. Ie, the economy for many. I hope I am wrong.

[RainCaster]

23. Farmers in the heartland still support DFT, after losing their crops to his trade war

There is no hope or redemption for Trumpanzees.

[murielm99]

35. Not this farmer,

and not all farmers. And a lot of our crops were lost due to weather and climate change.

Go bash the South for awhile. That is helpful, too.

[Hoyt]

9. He'll never do a day, no jury will convict him. I'm fine with working out a deal where he leaves

office, agrees not to participate in political discussions, and will not face prosecution for past politically related offenses.

We need him out, immediately, not a year from now.

[kozar]

12. and leaves this country, forever n/t

[Scarsdale]

18. No pension,

no medical coverage either. He has sucked enough from taxpayers. Him and his spawn of grifters.

[Hoyt]

19. Definitely. Russia is only one that will take him.

[certainot]

24. you're right, banishment. but republicans will have to help arrange it and there'd have to be a

very believable excuse like breakdown, etc for them to sell it to the dittohead base and limbauhg would have to help sell it. republicans know they're sunk with a president pence though.

[Lonestarblue]

38. Trump will never face prison.

If he resigned, Pence would pardon him. If he loses in 2020, he will quit in time for Pence to become president and pardon him. People like Trump get way with enormous crimes and never pay a price.

[kacekwl]

2. We need to start pounding him

hourly with calls for resignation calls for impeachment. Along with McConnell . Non stop .

[Capperdan]

29. Agree 100%

Fuck this guy.

[Siwsan]

4. It's a waste of time and energy that can be spent working to vote him out

He doesn't care what the majority of the country wants or needs. He doesn't care about reality. He only cares about himself and those who will glom onto his every word and scream their approval of his mendacity.

[CrispyQ]

15. What if he doesn't leave then?

Do we have a Plan B?

[Siwsan]

20. He will be arrested for trespassing, by the Marshalls?

Once that oath of office is taken by the next POTUS, his right of occupancy ends.

[Siwsan]

20. He will be arrested for trespassing, by the Marshalls?

Once that oath of office is taken by the next POTUS, he's a mere visitor.

[certainot]

36. voting is not enough. americans need offense that hurts. amerricans need to destroy the

talk radio monopoly that will spend however long it takes to intimidate and enable further republican obstruction.

200- 300 talk radio blowhards on 1500 radio stations will spend as long as it takes to keep making excuses for obstructing gun reform. and they will probably be getting callers from the kremlin.

if americans want to send the republicans a message, boycott and protest those radio stations and put limbagh and sons out of business. and protest the universities and pro sports teams that support them.

[secondwind]

6. The GOP isn't done packing the courts.

[Hermit-The-Prog]

8. #TrumpsTerrorists love him

The racist narcissist in our White House will not resign. He needs to be in prison.

[global1]

10. I Say - Keep Him On The Defensive Until The Nov 2020 Election......

Keep the pressure on him to resign - even if we know he won't. Him being on the defensive - having to protect himself from a myriad of accusations listed in my OP - will take away the time from him being able to campaign.

Such pressure on him will also open the eyes of the American People - and hopefully that would translate into the American People coming out in record numbers to vote this guy out of office.

Maybe we'll be able to impeach Trump in the House - but - Moscow Mitch and the Repugs will circle the wagons around Trump and protect him from being convicted in the Senate and ousted from office. I'm not saying that we shouldn't move on impeachment - but what I'm saying is this is like a war on Trump and we have to open many fronts which he and his Party have to defend. We need to wear them down. We need to continually keep them on the defensive by keeping the pressure on him/them. Calling for his resignation is just another one of those fronts in the war against Trump and the Repugs.

I especially think that Trump's sexual predatory habits is one of the areas that the Repugs won't be able to protect Trump from. Greater men than Trump have fallen to the MeToo movement and accusations of sexual assault. Trump is an admitted sexual offender. Grabbing; peeping; feeling; raping. He's been accused of them all.

Mitch might be able to protect Trump from 'Russian collusion' and 'obstruction of justice' but it's harder for him and the Repugs to protect Trump from all of Trump's sexual accusations.

I'm saying - don't give Trump the light of day to detract, feed us more lies and incite more violence. Keep him on the defensive. Tie him up with all those things that he has to defend himself on. We have the goods on this guy. Why aren't we using them?

[Hermit-The-Prog]

11. TrumPutin, Moscow Mitch and Russiapublicans should not have peace

All the power-mad, greedy, traitorous, radical Republican bastards should be confronted with their lies and crimes everywhere they appear in public.

Trump's terrorists did not spring from a vacuum.

[Traildogbob]

17. Pro life bullshit

The Republican Party 💀☠🔫 Is "The Party of Death". Period. They are the party of war, (with your children), the party of no health care to save your life, the party of all the war weapons you want, the party of poisoning air, water, food, the party of no environmental regulation to poison you, the party of massive death through climate destruction, the party of police killings, the party of rape, the party of take away safety net seniors paid for, so they die, the party of pro murdering Dictatorships, North Korea and Putin known murderis of their citizens, the party of murderous White Supremacist, the party of steal your Social Security that will kill 10s of thousands. All in the open! They steal elections, but also have a 35 percent full support of idiots. So, stick your pro life, bible thumper thoughts and prayers, family values up your murderous asses. This should be the Dem messaging, Republican's are the "Party of Death", in plain view.

[Hermit-The-Prog]

26. Republicans: The Party of Death

That's a good summary. Needs to be formatted as bullet points in an OP.

[Traildogbob]

28. Guns Over People GOP

Party of Death, EVERTHING they stand for and do ends up killing Americans. And making THEM billions. Fux, Rusty Limpballs and Alex Jones raking in cash promoting death. Death for cash is the GOP platform.

[Hermit-The-Prog]

30. and there's your title!

Guns Over People -- The Party of Death

I'd bet there are lots on DU who could either add to your list or expand some of the points.

The Republican Party has become more and more radicalized as they've lost mainstream citizens' support.

[Traildogbob]

34. Unlimited material to draw from.

And we wonder why the dems messaging is weak. Videos, tweets, speeches, it is endless. Where the hell is the dem marketing? Maybe hire the super bowl marketing pros. I have zero skills in marketing, but the ideas flow non stop. It should be happening now. There are an alarming number of Tulsi Gabbort billboards all over rural deep red state. Is that a good use of dem funds? I seriously believe that is Russian funded. Jill Stien 2.0. Gabbort is a Putin apologist, Asad sympathizer. We need to flood the messaging with Party of Death. The stats are sickening. Mouth breathers need clean air and healthcare too. Lots of poison can enter those gapping orifices.

[Hermit-The-Prog]

37. start the discussion

Click "General Discussion" in the left column, click "Start a discussion" (top, left), and get the messaging started!

[NCjack]

13. I will send him a postcard today. The message is

Your speech on Aug 5th, 10AM was insincere.  

You are unworthy of the office.

RESIGN NOW.

[bearsfootball516]

27. Somehow, I don't think Trump reads mail that gets sent to the White House.

[CloudWatcher]

32. Trump reads?

I'm pretty sure he doesn't even read his speeches before they hit the teleprompter.

[NCjack]

33. He collects very forms of approvals. Since no commercial

surveyors ask me what I think, I send the SOB a simple postcard.

[lunasun]

14. Maybe a lot of citizens don't care or even like him as president

[bucolic_frolic]

16. Republicans are protecting their cash flow

and they agree with him and he has something on each and every one of them.

[kag]

25. AND HIS TURNING THE PRESIDENCY INTO HIS OWN PERSONAL ATM!

This gets left off of so many lists, but the truth is that if he weren't making money off of being president, he'd resign in a heartbeat.

[Firestorm49]

31. Why?

Because it’s nearly impossible to get people up and off of their asses to demonstrate against the idiot. A few people at his rallies don’t quite cut it. Neither does the press do more to not seem bias, but tell the truth about what’s going on.

[ThoughtCriminal]

39. Absolutely!

Oh sure he is unlikely to do it, but that should not stop us. Why?

- It puts him and his enablers on the defensive.
- It puts emphasis on how corrupt, how inept, and how immoral this administration is.
- It raises attention on critical shortcomings (incompetence, nepotism, racism, sexism, bigotry) that probably would not appear in impeachment hearings

[MadDAsHell]

40. Because Ralph Northam. Because Steve King. Because in 2019, the media always moves on.

The great lesson of the last few years is all you have to do is deny / refuse to resign for just 2-3 days. If you can make it past those 2-3 days, the media always moves onto something else.

Who in their right mind thought that Governor Northam would still have his job on 8/5/19? He and his advisors held out because they realized that by day 4 or 5 there would be dozens of stories getting more coverage than his, and he was right.

Trump thinks the same way I'm sure.

if Anthony Weiner was around today, no way he would resign. We the sheeple have the attention span of preschoolers.

[global1]

41. We're Talking A President Here And Not A Governor....

and we're talking Trump not a Northam.

Trump has so many crimes attributed to him - as long as the Dems kept the pressure on him 24/7 and moved from one crime to the next - the coverage by the media would continue and actually accelerate to the point that Trump wouldn't know what hit him.

In Trump's case the media would not move on to something else.

The trick is to keep the pressure on Trump and keep that pressure coming from all sides. From the Dems in the House. From the Dems in the Senate. From Dems in the States. From the American People by way of protests and social media posts.

The accusations would keep on flying and Trump would be having to go into a defensive mode and he would not have time for rally's or campaigning or golfing or going to Mar-A-Lago.
