Same thing happened with the assault weapon ban, years ago. The legislators crafted a shitty law, and it didn’t work. So instead of doing their jobs correctly, they admitted they were failures, and let the law lapse. If you can’t write a good law, what do we have you for?

I didn’t have enough room in my parentheses to include Gorsuch, the Muslim ban, his support of Milo Yiannopoulous, removing two regulations for every one new one, or the fact that not a single member of his staff is using a secured mobile device.

Again, although we’re used to the concept of a malicious politician creating harmless distractions to implement a nefarious agenda, this time almost nothing is a distraction. It’s all awful shit. The Frederick Douglass thing is the most benign item you listed, but Cabinet picks and Steven Bannon are absolutely big…

Unless someone grows a spine and calls him on it and files an actual complaint, what are we supposed to do? That’s like saying that he’s going to provide his taxes or actually look into voter fraud or Russian interference in the elections or....

He never will, he’s made that clear. He’ll never even make the disclosures so that we know when he’s benefiting.

And everyone is so wrapped up in the political theater Trump is creating (cabinet nominations, who tf is Frederick Douglass, Steve Bannon), we’ve yet again skipped over the fact that our POTUS still hasn’t fucking fully divested himself from his businesses, many of which will likely benefit from the financial…

Ok missed that, damn work getting in the way of reading such fine literature.

I think I’m more likely to get a “For The Love of God, Knock It Off” order.

So basically its The Matrix, except the people are plugged into cars instead of power plants.

You’ll know you’re on to something when the Disney suits serve you with a cease & desist order.

Use public transportation. It’s the only way you’ll ever be able influence the Trump supporters in a positive way by giving up your seat so they can fit their walkers beside them.

Agree entirely. I did this very thing last night.

already done

Resistance is never futile. Do not go quietly into that good night.

Exactly. The face that border patrol/ICE via their union and the police union endorsed Trump paves the way for a police state.

Even if Trump genuinely thought he could make America a better place, he made the mistake of putting his trust in Stephen Bannon. Bannon isn’t interested in working for all Americans, and the only thing he cares about is inflicting his hateful views on the world. He knows no logic, reason or compassion, but he’s also…

I wrote Judge Donnelly a thank you card today and mailed it. I’m a big believer in positive reinforcement. May those on the correct side stay strong and may history view us well.

Remember when people would mock us for comparing trump to hitler?
