I have just written another one of those posts that I decided not to hit the "Post My Thread!"

button for.

For now, I decided it was too "radical" and "inflammatory".

I'll just stop at saying I will be VERY VERY "upset" if Michigan or any other state run by a legislative nest of Trump-bots attempts to essentially scrap democracy and "declare. Trump POTUS.

VERY VERY upset.

It ain't happening. They would have to change state law in PA, MI and WI. That will never get passed 3 democratic governors. Fools dream. Ain't happening. Just shows how scared Donnie the Dumb Ass really is.

Protests with 100,000's filling the capital of WI on the regular for years, while the GOP rammed through measures the people didn't want, and stacking their Supreme court with hacks that literally were attacking other Supreme court member physically...I put nothing past these scum bags.

I've got a plan B if they steal our Democracy, and it includes a General Strike!

I bet we did! I'm in northern IL now, right over the boarder. McHenry county voted 12%+ in favor of Democratic candidates this election, so although it's red now, I'm going to continue to talk to these people, and change their insulated mindset.
