In reply to the discussion: Do you think we will have martial law a ? [View all]barbtries
(28,798 posts)10. we need the senate.
not only has mcconnell abused his power maniacally, but he's turned the senate into a legislative graveyard and prevented so many laws from even being discussed let alone passed, laws that would improve the quality of life for everyday Americans. And then the trump connection. sigh.
It's not enough to win the WH away from Trump. We need it all. Then it will be generations trying to repair the damage done and resurrecting our democracy.
I don't know about the martial law question. I don't think that it will go well if he does it. I think that might be just the thing to get the people into the streets in vast numbers, which should already be happening.
