We can't depend on TPTB of our Party.
We must protest this incoming Orange Anus...and keep protesting.
We'll need to take to the streets I guess.

(10,533 posts)A giant wave is about to hit this country, and we've missed our last chance to stop it. Now it has to break on its own. I hope as many of us as possible can get out of its destructive path.
Happened to other countries in the past. Now it's happening to us.

Obama just left us to our own devices.
He is leaving the country to a demented group of
greedy scumbag, incompetent sociopaths while
telling Dems how to win elections the way he did
by using the fifty-state/every-county strategy
when we all know how he deliberately scuttled
Howard Dean and the fifty-state strategy, with
the result that the DNC has been in the wrong
hands ever since.
And he let James Comey off the hook completely.
Words fail, and his sure did.
triron
(21,984 posts)that Comey sent that letter to sway the election away from Clinton.
Obama knows that. He probably can't openly condemn his actions as POTUS.

(9,760 posts)Reality? The dangerous reality is that tRump and his cronies care about how they can gain even more wealth and power and little else. They have shown themselves to have no regard for the implicit limitations of honor and duty.
Hell, forget the unspoken restraints--they don't give a shit about the law or the Constitution. To see this as business as usual is ludicrous!

(13,409 posts)The closest anyone has come has been Harry Reid and he has less than three weeks remaining in his term. Apart from a few left-leaning journalists and media figures, no one is speaking in support of or for average Americans and Democrats. It's pretty pathetic if you ask me.
