(10,599 posts)Don't forget, you're the member of Congress, and we're just citizens.
Think calling our repub Reps and/or Senators would help? Say "Pretty Please with a cherry on top, don't destroy our Democracy?" Shall we waste what little time we have left in our Democracy on pointless gestures?
Should we send you some money for your next campaign? Assuming there is one. Would that help?
In case you hadn't noticed, we got our butts wiped about 48 hours ago. The majority of the American people don't want Democracy. They voted for a Fascist, Racist, Wanna Be Dictator, and an increase to the # of his Klan in Congress to grant his every wish.
I listened to you on MSNBC for years now, saying how electing "T" would end Democracy? Didn't it? Do we somehow now get a 2nd chance? If so, might there be a 3rd one?
Come back and tell me when you come up with a solution to what we can do, now that "T" is in the White House until January 2029, the Senate & House are run by his followers until at least January 2027, and the Supreme Court is probably controlled by them until the 2060's, when I'll probably be dead.
I'm gonna take a break from the whole fighting for Democracy thing. But no big loss, since I'm not a President, Congress Member or SC Justice, so there's not much I can do besides Vote. Which I did last Tuesday, since I know, "When We Vote, We Win!" Catchy slogan.
