We need to prepare for a general strike during the lame duck session.

It’s time to pick a week, any week, and call for a strike across America. Shut everything down. If those SOBs steal another SCOTUS seat then it’s war. Period.

the period from election day to the inauguration of the next president is known as "lame duck". Same with any incumbent who lost their bid for re-election.
