Charles P. Pierce: The Resistance Cannot Wait Until 2018

5. "Be patient. It took two years to bring Nixon down."

That's been posted many times on DU, but we don't have two years! They are taking a sledge hammer to our government & the dems continue to play by the rules. Every day I become a little more resigned to the fact that no one is going to do anything about Donald Trump. The Russian investigation doesn't seem to be going anywhere. The republicans sure aren't pushing it. The dems couldn't if they wanted to, since they've been neutered. The media seems to have lost interest, except for a few on MSNBC. The military is probably happy to be given a longer leash with less accountability. If the Comey hearing is any indicator, the intelligence community won't do anything. And We the People are busy working 2-4 jobs to keep our heads above water, while they take away our health care & set their sites on our social security & medicare.

There are five people in my life that I know voted for Trump & I've avoided them since the election. But with each passing day, I fear I may not be able to be civil to them if I see them.
