Write your Congressperson -- This is a fucking emergency

Now.

Write something. Tell them how you feel, even if they are a stupid Republican bootlicker.

Here is what I wrote:



I will keep this brief.

Today is Friday, April 17, 2020, and the President of the United State is trying to start a civil war by Twitter. You must run to the nearest media person you see and start calling for this lunatic's resignation. It is your duty to protect our Constitution from all enemies.

In case you missed the Tweets, here is the text of one of them: "LIBERATE VIRGINIA, and save your great 2nd Amendment. It is under siege!"

YOU MUST DO SOMETHING!


Not very eloquent, I know, and I really wanted to avoid ALLCAPS, but I couldn't help it. I have sympathetic representatives (Oregon: Wyden, Merkley, Blumenauer), but my patience is running thin as I watch them behave as if Trump's behavior is anywhere close to normal.

Duffy resigned and the special election hasn't been held yet. The result would be the same anyway as we are gerrymandered red.

I wrote Crist, cry baby Rubio and Medicare thief scott. I used your message hope you don't mind. I added to the repubs message they needed to resign if they won't protect the constitution from enemies foreign and domestic.

Sen. Boozman's DC office, but got a phone mail for Cotton's. Told both of them that it was so unfortunate the Senator didn't have the guts to impeach MF45, but it sure is time to begin 25th. Amendment action. Stated MF45 was a raving lunatic.
