and trash Trump. It might not catch all Trump related threads but it should hide the majority of them...

At least here we are working the resistance.

We are after all, Democratic Underground.

but this whole horrible takeover can be related to post traumatic stress disorder for posters here.

One thing I think about is what if we really have to go "underground" how are we going to communicate??? maybe we will see each other on the "streets". We have to fight.

what they do to the other end. There's no running away from this. Maybe ignore Trump? Be angry and active about something you can handle?

... based on dumping on Trump. He needs to be dumped on, no doubt. But I don't want to spend time and energy on him. I'm waiting for leaders to rise up. Ways to support counter movements. It may take some time, but I'm hoping. I'm watching Obama (Organize for America) and Hilllary (note her speech at Reids retirement party).

Hiding your head under the sand will accomplish nothing. We're in for a rough 4 years and everybody needs to be ready to fight for everything they hold dear.

I'm sticking around until electoral college votes. If no revolt, I am leaving and will be back in 2018.

So many posts lamenting his election, saying what a horrible person he is, etc. Thinking up goofy nicknames for him. Venting is OK, but it's not something to take up as life work.

And at least we don't have to (God, forbid) hear his voice on DU. But I understand and support your decision. Hope you come back.
