Trump owns the 3 branches of government: will never be impeached.

Every day it becomes harder to impeach Trump. We can't wait for Mueller. Trump has already guilty of crimes as well as not "taking care" of nation.

People are still pretending that Trump is a normal person. He creates false dramas so he can "win" of his enemies. The NK summit is not going anywhere. In fact, he has once again weakened America.

WAIT AND SEE is allowing the last bulwarks of democracy to crumble under Trump's meglomania.

I get the momentary urge to cry out in despair too but it needs to pass and we need to take one of those branches back as much as possible. And keep going at every level until we Make America Respectable Again!

Mostly, though, rally the base and combat voter suppression.

Getting non-voters to vote is a long-game strategy. Turnout won't change over night.

I seriously think the republicans are going to pull every trick out of the book (slime/slur candidates, charge candidates with criminal charges, contest votes). Not forgetting that the police and courts will use their power to prevent people from voting. White nationalists will up their reign of terror and intimidation.

besides every thing that we can do now, we need to look at local and state representatives who are in charge of voting.

Remember the republicans and trump are fighting for their lives. If they lose the majority, they don't just go home and plan for another day. They may face impeachment or criminal charges.

So of course a democratic majority will make it easier to impeach PINO. That is why they are not going to let that happen.

Vote in your local primary.

Encourage everyone you know who hates the situation we're in to vote.

Vote in the general in November.

Drive people to the polls.

Get it done...
