Rest assured Chuck Schumer and Dems will hound Trump and McConnell on the hypocrisy, saying back to them.."Let the American people decide who selects the next Supreme Court Justice. " Use McConnel's tactics against him. Remember Merrick Garland.

Trump is writing the Biden ads with each tweet he makes and his actions speak louder than words.

We have to do everything we can in big and small ways to withhold cooperation locally and nationally. When you cut off the dictator's support and means, you can topple his regime. The more he is cut off from the machine that empowers him, the less effective his coup.

We must celebrate and point out those who do that as patriotic and working for justice. That means we point out what I am saying here explicitly and thank them in that context.

We should really try to point out the collaboration and complicity of those who support this toxic authoritarian. The focus would be best put on that line in a way that overshadows the myriad of talking points, actions and incitements that Trump uses to detract, divide and distract.

Collaboration should have some cost and there are many ways to bring that about.

He would have zero power without his cult.

Many members of his cult hold positions of power.

The scariest thing about Trump is his cult.
