NYC Mayor Teaches Democrats How To Fight Trump



Right now, it’s the thousands of liberals in this country who are standing up against bigotry and hatred: in our schools, on the streets, and against our own government at Standing Rock. It’s the millions of liberals who will be expected to protect our country from the coming onslaught against our freedoms and values from the Trump administration.

If there is any perception that liberalism=weakness, (aka “bleeding heart&quot , that has nothing to do with our values: you can thank the many weak-kneed Democrats who supposedly represent us. It's those Democrats who refuse to fight. Those who go along to get-along.

It’s those Democrats who say they will work with Trump on economic issues while ignoring the fact that neo-Nazis are being granted government positions.

It’s those same Democrats who refuse to speak up when election shenanigans are being brought to their attention. If a Wisconsin county was caught giving Hillary over 1000 extra votes and then said “whoops", I can name several GOP politicians who’d be screaming about it. Not our reps. Shut up and ensure a “smooth transition”.

Go fuck yourself.
