78. I do not understand why some people

think that the choice we have is either vote or resist.
Voting and legally resisting are not
mutually exclusive.
Voting is a must so is resisting,
marching,and shaming them. Any one who dose not see the seriousness of the situation we are in should remember the British prime minister Lord chamberlain who signed a peace agreement with Hitler that did not prevent WWII. He was certainly a civil gentleman!!!!! and a naive leader.
Democratic leadership wake up and smell
the coffee.
