We're facing the biggest threat to America in our lifetimes. [View all]

The threat is the "presidency" of Donald Trump.

The Republican Party is aiding and abetting this threat.

The Democrats in the house and senate don't have the votes to stop it.

We have seen the damage that Trump has already done, and the totally insane, cruel, sadistic "health care plan" the GOP is ready to roll out. And, of course, the numb nut in the White House will sign whatever horror they put in front of him.

And this doesn't even start to cover the countless issues/decisions which the POTUS must deal with every minute of every day.

So here's my question? What can we do to stop this madness?

And for anyone who missed it, let me be more blunt. What can we do to stop this madman in the Oval Office, along with his puppet master, Stephen Bannon?

We must not allow them to dismantle our country.

Suggestions?
