No need to pretend any further - we are at war with the fascists and the Republican Party.

There is no room for compromise. We have run out of hope that Donald Trump and the Republicans will do anything for our nation. They are in it for themselves.

We should be gearing for battle. We don't need to waste any more of our time talking to these moron sympathizers. They are not going to change.

Our efforts should be working towards registering as many people as humanly possible and making sure they get to the polls. That is the only solution that is left us. Everything else is just dressing.

When you hear him give a speech or a presser, he is strictly talking to his base.
Nobody can negotiate with that no matter how hard they might try.
Accept it, folks... And work to undo it!

Our Intelligence people failed dismally. So far.

Until we can clear out drumph and the entire GOP we will be struggling to survive.

This is them framing the battlefield. I'm not saying don't vote, but if we have a voting system that has already failed us by somehow turning 62 million into a number greater than 65 million, then it can fail us again.

This book applies to our government today, so read it, learn about the strategies and tactics within, and then download it and share it with others. If the Trump administration, Republicans, so-called Evangelicals, the white supremacists of the electoral college who are just fine with blood on their hands, Putinists, Adam Lanza and Dylann Roof Wannabes of the "alt-right", and the media figures who want to create a climate where it's "ok" to want to gouge your own eyes out rather than agree with a liberal have any real power, then that means they have the same sources of power that any crackpot dictator has... and that power can be limited or taken away.
