1. I wouldn't go or watch, but does that mean we trash Democrats if they do go?

3. No need to trash anyone.

Simply call and encourage them not to go.

6. Of course. I politely asked my Rep not to attend out of repect for John Lewis. I left a message

for my Dem Senator. I will call my Repug also.

2. There will be a few with the courage.

Most will go because they're expected to attend. It's difficult for them to buck the system because they depend on the back scratching and favor trading that drives the legislative system.

4. Here is a web address to contact them. Great idea...

Dem Rep. Mark Pocan won't attend the inauguration, says Trump needs to act like a president, "not an immature, undignified reality star".
