2018 Elections Are The Real Test - Will We Continue to Enable Crazy? [View all]

Quite honestly, 2020 could very well be too late to do anything about Trump given the disdain he has shown for the truth or civil liberties. I am sure Trump would engage in voter intimidation based on his alternative facts of millions of illegal voters in 2020 unless we can elect a Democratic Congress as a check on his insanity. If we can't do it, we could well be on our way to an irrevocable erosion of our rights as citizens.
