Michael Moore: Do These Ten Things, and [Redacted] Will Be Toast

[TygrBright]

“The Michael Moore Easy-to-Follow 10-Point Plan to Stop Trump.”

First, let’s acknowledge what we all know to be true: Trump is in deep, deep trouble ― in the pocket of Russians, surrounded by alt.right idiots, alone in his bathrobe in a mostly-empty White House ― and caught inside a disgusting “shit-sandwich”, so said his supporter who turned down the NSA job.

Only one month into his So-Called Presidency ― and yet there is good news, as this is what the American landscape looks like:

Tens of thousands of citizens across the country have stormed Congressional district offices and town hall meetings to express their rage at the Trump agenda (a dejected Republican congressman, after a 3-hour verbal assault from his angry constituents, said on TV last night, “let’s face it - they [the Obamacare supporters] have won.”).

A federal court halted Trump’s first Muslim Ban ― actually, make that FOUR federal courts have ruled against him! He’s conceded defeat and will not appeal to the Supreme Court (though he will try a new ban - and good luck with that, you son of a Scottish immigrant).

Good article, worth reading the whole thing, and while I'm not sure what he specifically means by "Toast," I absolutely concur that if we all do all of these things, we will be doing major blocking/damage control. So it's definitely worth reading... and worth doing.

helpfully,
Bright

1. Until he stops his constant, insufferable attacks on DNC "old leadership,"

I don't give a fuck what Michael Moore has to say.

2. would that be the "old leadership" that has cost dems thousands of elected offices since 2008? nt

3. nah, that would be gerrymandering and voter suppression but lets leave those facts that aren't

... in dispute out of the conversation seeing its easier to bash (unfairly criticize) dem leadership.

6. K & R - Read the whole article.

8. Article over all is very good, but as far as getting rid of the old guard, you can't lump

them all together. I have two terrific senators. Senator Wyden was elected in 1996, and he is a Jedi Knight in my mind, and very popular among his constituents (the progressive ones) with good reason. What does Moore mean by old? How old?

9. He doesn't mean old chronologically, but politically. He certainly supports 75 year old Sanders!

[Amaryllis]

10. OKay, that makes a lot more sense!
