The underlying issues run much deeper than Trump

[True Dough]

It's rather daunting to think of how much work lies ahead, but we must march on...

2. Exactly. trump is not our problem, it's people who support his kind.

[certainot]

27. trump, like bush and so many now elected in the gop would never have been elected without their

talk radio monopoly propaganda operation blasting the country all day

if putin would pay $1000/hr for a pro trump infomercial then 1200 stations doing 15hrs a day would be worth about $5BIL/year FREE to them

that's where the support comes from, and the left continues to ignore it, even letting 88+ universities support 260 limbaugh stations, including 3 universities in GA that support 14 limbaugh stations that have been selling anti choice bullshit

ignoring talk radio is the problem, the only major medium operating without direct free speech challenge

[ismnotwasm]

3. Or the sheer bigotry that elected him.

[Eyeball_Kid]

4. The entire nation is not prepared...

to understand the distinctions between capitalism and self-governance. We burst out in patriotic chants when we are told that our ECONOMY is an example of American Exceptionalism. Voting or activism? Not so much. Fascism is something akin to capitalism run amok, when corporations run government. The racism and hatred are classic distractions to keep the masses from erupting in revolt. All of this has been done before.

23. Excellent observation! Spot on!! Mandatory education is needed!!!

Political Science, History, and psychology. Corporations need a charter from governments to exist.
The charter is the key. Right Now corporations exist only for money. Theoretically government's can require them to exist to advance Humanity's needs for sustainable survival.

8. The Innumerable Abuses of the Trump Administration Haven't Occurred in a Vacuum

They have been build on the foundation of the abuses of the Bush administration. The GOP has become a completely corrupt criminal enterprise.

9. I like that dress.

Which reminds me:

Woman get to wear the coolest business dress, many outfits so unique and mostly no two alike.

And what do men have to wear? The same stupid, ugly coat and tie uniform where the only noticeable style and individuality in evidence is the tie. But don't get too bold!

How boring. Who wrote that rule anyway? Do people really think this is the best we can do? That it looks good? Pfffft.

Now the 17th and 18th century European menswear for those with a bit of wherewithal? No comparison. Fantastic!

10. All Republicans must be voted out of every office.

It's the only way to get things back to something close to normal.

[Initech]

11. Yes, fuck the national level. Real change starts at the local level.

That's why every vote matters - doesn't matter if it's a comptroller, city council, mayor, judge, sheriff, state senator, national senator... every single check box matters. Every one.

[SergeStorms]

12. Well said!

And it won't change the minds of the Trump zombies. How so many people can be so willing to swallow so much total bullshit astounds me. What is wrong with these people?

[NBachers]

13. I'm encouraged to see that one of the most junior members of Congress has such a firm grasp of truth

If she stays and keeps fighting, I am encouraged for our future.

[True Dough]

14. Definitely!

AOC is a keeper.

[FakeNoose]

15. She does have a remarkable understanding and perspective

... for someone so young. I give AOC credit for that. She is listening and learning, and she's showing confident leadership abilities.

[True Dough]

16. AOC 2028?

She's so young. Gonna be a while before she's eligible for POTUS.

[warmfeet]

17. Perhaps,

but removing the orange asshole is certainly the first step.

1st goal = remove orange asshole from office.

[Mr.Bill]

18. Maybe so,

but I'm still thinking putting him in prison is priority #1.

[patphil]

19. that's true

Donovan, a singer from the 60's, had a song called the universal soldier.
He correctly recognized that you can't fight a war without soldiers.
Trump knows his base is his army; his brown shirts.
But, they are not enough to take our country away.
That requires that we let them.
Stand and deliver in 2020!
