It might take a Mike Pence moment, and the best strategy we can take is to relentlessly pound the truth of his betrayal of law, the constitution, the armed forces, government employees, (former) allies and the taxpaying middle class.

I would not expect a mass display of force by any group to bring about change, except by telling truth. I would not expect retaliation by Iran or any victim of his murder by proxy.

Just one of the many who swore to protect and defend the constitution disarming the war that Putin's proxy is waging on America and not taking that oath as a cynical headfake.

Or the South African, to whom his oath of citizenship was indeed a cynical headfake, "when autocrats collide"

My Dad had a cynical saying that two dictators cannot co-exist on the same continent, and he may be proven right on this one continent.
