Trump fired off his Muslim Ban and people were in the streets immediately. That made a huge difference, rocked them back on their heels hard. If they don't appoint a special prosecutor, we need to show up loud and proud to DEMAND that they end this farce.
We are Americans. They cannot do this without our consent. The country is too big, diverse and hard to manage.

But, boo hoo!! We can't survive without shopping at Walmart! We need our shopping addictions.

(739 posts)Part of what probably made the ban marches happen so quickly is that there were clear places to go --international airport arrival terminals. A few cities have clear places to gather -- eg:NYC in front of Trump Tower. Where can the rest of the country know to go when this happens? The statehouse, county offices? We need a clear place to gather spontaneously in each town and city.

We need to hear from Dem leaders and ACLU. Tell us where to go. GOP and Trump think their lives were a living hell over ACA? They haven't seen ANYTHING yet.
