[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I follow Angry WH Staffer on BlueSky. They say that they think our democracy will survive but will need to be rebuilt. What will that look like?

How do we make sure we never again elect someone so incredibly unqualified for the position of potus? It is not an exaggeration to say that Trump could not pass a HS Civics class. He has no use for norms or decorum. Maga says his personality doesn’t matter, but it does. When you are a world leader, your personality flaws can literally start a war.

His mental capacity is rapidly declining, but he can just refuse access to his medical report.

He blatantly profits from his position. Doesn’t even try to hide it. Yet nobody can do anything about it. He just refuses the norm of sharing his tax returns and, that too, is shrugged off.

Our checks and balances are gone. Rule of law is gone. It has only been 2 months. Nobody can figure out how to hold him accountable for anything.

He is intentionally choosing the most unqualified people for his cabinet positions, and they cruise through confirmation anyway.

He put a foreign entity and a group of college kids in charge of our agencies and gave them unfettered access to all our information. He is letting them decide who gets to keep their jobs.

So what do we do? Trump and maga want to talk about government waste. Instead of pointing the finger at civil servants, why not point the finger at the hundreds of elected officials who are powerless over a 78 year old bankrupt real estate mogul turned reality tv host who also happens to be a convicted felon?

Maga, you should also be concerned. In politics, the pendulum always swings. How will you feel when all of above can be said about the next democratic president?

What needs to happen to reign in the power of the potus and make sure this never happens again?

That’s a fake account.

It’s too soon to think about rebuilding. The first is to stop the bleeding.

Make sure you are calling your elected officials every single day and telling them they need to hold Trump accountable. Tell House they need to impeach (they won’t but they need to start hearing this is our word demand). Tell senators they need to use school procedural tools to grind the Senate to a halt. Throw out words like deny, unanimous, consent, and call a quorum.

Attend Tesla Takedown’s, join in April 5 event. Talk to friends and neighbors and family, remind them that this is not OK and ask them to call their lawmakers and to stand up.[/quote]

What do Tesla takedowns do?  You already see how it's failing, you are practically declaring a war on property already owned by your own constituencies.  Elon isn't going bankrupt and won't.  They will find a way around it and in the meanwhile you are getting a bunch of moderate Dems deregister because they are fed up not being able drive the vehicles they paid for.

What if your homebuilder is found to be supporting current administration, or the maker of your furniture/appliances, or your own employer?   You know in business world it's interconnected and everyone owns everyone else, including you with your 401Ks and pension funds.  Dumb you are  :roll: [/quote]
