Fourth step, review and reverse all of the destructive executive orders of Trump.
Fifth step...yeah, I know...
Problem is we need a dynamic, charismatic leader who has the courage to speak truth to power, and go into a showdown when necessary. Somebody sometime ago called JFK the 'last gunslinger.'
Well, we need another one now because our time grows short.
So, our FIRST STEP needs to be to pull out all the stops in the way we communicate our message so people who hear us 'get' the real urgency of the situation. Carter called it the 'moral equivalent of war,' but MEW didn't take for obvious reasons. Obama called it the 'fierce urgency of NOW.' That's better but not quite it.
What do all of you think? The GOP has been kicking our asses with simple slogans for years and years and years. What's ours going to be? What is our communication strategy?
Because we don't really have time to do it slow, back centrists, be careful and all that. Some of these things need to happen now.
