that the white victim talk needed to hone in on perception. Fairly or not, many white men felt threatened by what happened to Kavanaugh, and they let it be known. I couldn't disagree more, but that's a reality. I expect to see R's use the same tactic should the situation seem "necessary" to them.

Know yourself - know your enemy. These are the arguments and the logic they are going to use and we need to know how to respond,
how to counter, and how to blow them out of the water. If ever there was a question about sharing power with them we now have the
answer. They seek total power - they seek tyranny!

Do we have leaders who will help us do these things, to respond, to counter, and to blow them out of the water?

I HOPE we do. I don't know who they are.
