Too bad his character didn't show this kind of passion during The Last Jedi.

need to tell James Woods to STFU first
If they're fine with Woods' drivel then they should be fine with Mr Hamill's tweets

Well, there you have it!
Mark Hamill is an elitist, spelling that word like he's British, or even Canadian!
He's not going to win over (m)any Deplorables that way.

"I love my country but I fear my government."?

Any one know where those might be available now for us libruls to use? It'd be great to see it on electric vehicles, hybrids and bicycles instead of on jacked up pickup trucks with shredder tires and a gun rack in the back window.

But instead of just fearing, we need to act. Start now. If you've never volunteered to work in a political campaign, pick one that's working to overturn the orange-tinged darkness and give your time if you can't give your money.

More than ever, we need to energize and get out the vote to retake the Senate and the White House.

Replaced with ones featuring the monosyllabic last name of cadet comb-over.
Although I did see one where the first and last letters were missing: "RUM - Make America Great Again."

Unseating the orange-tinged darkness is vital, but we must regain control of the Senate. I highly recommend looking into Ditch Mitch. The banner on that website reads "Washington is broken. And Mitch broke it."

That's not productive toward the end goal. It's a feel good thing that doesn't accomplish getting Trump out of office.

But for non-politicians, it's totally great. They can get away with saying those things.

Rob Reiner and Jim Carrey's tweets are especially pointed and excellent.
