He's got another nine months to destroy America

And even if he "loses," he's got another 70+ days after that. But do you really believe the Republican Theft Machine is going to let him lose?

The miserable prick, along with the Republican Party, is destroying the country and the lives we've always known. And all we're doing is bitching about it because we don't think we can do anything about it.

RULES! LAWS! TRADIlTION! SANITY! Those are the things that hold us back.

So what do we do if they steal the next election?

I'm going to leave that question hanging there, because no one has the answer.

HOWEVER, were that to happen, how many of us are prepared to live in a country like Russia? How many of us will let ourselves be fucked every day of our lives? How many of us are just going to "wait for another election?" NEWS: If we lose this one, there will never be another election.

Everyone who gets it needs to get organized and prepared. We need to stop the insanity of the orange beast and the Republican party that kisses his orange ass every second of every day.

We need a Plan B. And we need leaders badly. Not after next November. We need leaders NOW. The alternative is unacceptable to everyone who takes freedom for granted. Especially those who are unknowing/unaware/or just plain stupid enough to stand by a tyrant who will fuck them beyond repair.

The ball's in our court.

After we win and take the country back, we can choose to learn from this, to reaffirm our values and to recognize those weak points in our democracy so as to strengthen them.

have begun a process of exploring the "what ifs" of the Dump administration over this time period. All those folks in senior positions who know he is batshit crazy and who have started making contingency plans? How do we support them?

But those who "get it" aren't going to post it in a public forum. They just need to know that millions of us are with them.
