To take every opportunity to troll, make an ass out of, ridicule, harass, the incoming administration.
Let's turn this into an opportunity!
Season's greetings.

(10,495 posts)pointing out all of the broken promises/lies OUR CANDIDATE has made! I plan on taking away as many of his supporters as I possibly can along with trashing the Republican Party and RW media/radio. Instead of getting them defensive and yelling back, I want them going, "No shit, he really did/said that?"
For example, I have been using what he said the other day about "Draining the swamp" being "hokey" and "not needed anymore." I have gone on about how his Goldman Saks appointments are going to feather their nests at our expense. They are not going to pay taxes (I didn't know they were now) and are going to make us pay for them.
You get the drift. It has been wildly successful already! I had a group of guys, all Trump supporters, get really pissed off. Just like they were easy to manipulate for Trump, they are easy for us if we approach it the right way. Besides, I am telling them the truth!!!

(10,907 posts)getting nauseous). I can't use my Progree screen name either. Another main screen name I use outside of DU is Hispanic -- that probably won't work either. But I certainly like the strategy. (On second thought, I do have one "real American" screenname that I use a lot outside of DU, that will fit this purpose quite well )
I'm sure we will have many opportunities to criticize him for not fulfilling his campaign promises, or not even trying to do so.

(2,037 posts)The faster we make voters suspicious of him early on, the easier it will be to pull them away from voting for him or another republican candidate that we can tie to him.
Keep it up!

We need to totally oppose and blockade them at every turn.

(90 posts)They lying cheeto did not win fairly, and did not get any mandate whatsoever.
He appealed to racists and stupid white assholes, and got enough of their votes to overcome an extremely unpopular candidate.
I will fight for what is right, which is by the way 100% the opposite of everything Trump wants to do.

No mercy, no quarter. And no let up.
I know their playbook and I know how to use it against them.
Their playbook is the following:
1: Lie, then lie about lying -- just keep hitting with facts until:
2: Call you the typical angry liberal -- now it's insult time: Call the typical brain dead asshole conservatard and then you get:
3: Tell you "I know liberals where supposed to be tolerant." -- them the you are intolerant to nazis, sexists, racists, etc, until:
4: They say they aren't a nazi/sexist/racist/bigot -- tell them they voted for one and that's all you need.
Usually now, they are drooling on themselves. Keep hitting them. Call them anti-American and give a list of reasons way.
Call them America hating and give them a list of reasons way.
Tell them to leave the country if they hate it here so much. Give them a list of libertarian, socially conservative places that are Christian theocracies: Uganda could be good.
Accuse them of being invaders and that they support the murder of native Americans.
FUCK, use their fucking playbook again them! It isn't hard!
I am making this its own post.

(988 posts)Please just make sure you do it with facts and not fake news.
There are many out there that are brainwashed and telling those folks lies might only solidify them sticking with their brain washing.
but please let the new administration have it. Let the lying republicans have it. It will come.
