Stop Trump

I am a Sanders supporter but will support Hillary if she wins the Nomination. I am hoping that Bernie will continue his Progressive Political Revolution no matter what. He will still lead from the Senate if he does not get the Nomination. We need more Sanders Democrats to run for office and change America for the better.

Anyway, I am very anti-Trump, and I think we need to focus our fire on Trump. Both Bernie and Hillary should work together on this. Trump is a dangerous Clown. I was looking at some images on Google showing Trump in clown face make-up. I think the images were from the cover of the New York Daily News.

If anyone out there is good with graphics, those images would make great posters and tee-shirts for anti-Trump demonstrators. I imagine the style of the image would be like a negative version of the old Obama "Hope" image, with Trump in Clown Make-up with the words "Trumpo The Clown" on the poster. Trump is a dangerous and obnoxious Clown and needs to be stopped. He calls Hillary "Crooked Hillary" and Bernie "Crazy Bernie". Maybe we should label him "Dumb Donald" and give him a taste of his own medicine.

Another Image I have thought of is a picture of Trump with a Swastika on his forehead and a poster with his Face and this image that also says simply "Stop Trump". I do not suggest the use of a Swastika lightly, but I think Trump and his Followers deserve this Image.

Trump is a sort of "Fascist Lite" and He and his People are often Crypto-Fascists. Fascism must be opposed at every turn, and we must use images like this to Tar and Feather Trump and show him and his People for what they are: Modern Fascists and some that are Nazi Sympathisers.

I saw a photo of an older woman at a Trump Rally giving a Nazi Salute. I think that sort of mentality underlays many Trump Followers. We must have an anti-Fascist Counter-Movement opposed to Trump and his People.

If you are not familiar, look up "White Rose" on Wikipedia. White Rose was an Anti-Nazi Movement within Germany during WWII. We need our own White Rose anti-Fascist Movement here in America to oppose Trump and his People.

Hopefully if you are reading this that you can spread the word and we could find some People who are good with graphics to help create these images so that we can spread them as a Meme. We need to propagate the "Stop Trump" Movement. As Democrats and Americans, we must use every peaceful weapon in our arsenal to Stop Trump.

the party from within. I would certainly support senatorial candidates with socialist views. The reason I wasn't for Sanders in the primary is that I saw his cause as laudable, but totally unfeasible given our current congress. I wanted to support a candidate who had a chance at moving the national agenda toward progressive goals, knowing that it will take small steps from many liberal presidents to achieve what we want.

I know that there is a lot of animosity between some of the Hillary People and the Sanders People, but I believe that it is soon time to make Peace between the Hillary Folks and the Sanders Folks.

I am a Sanders Supporter. My feeling is that even if Bernie does not win the Nomination, he and his People have earned a place at the Table. There are millions of us, and Hillary will likely not do well without bringing the Sanders People into the fold.

This can not be done unless the bad blood is addressed and changed. I know this is a tough subject, but we all need to bury the hatchet soon so that we can defeat Trump and his Crypto-Fascist Followers. This means uniting Hillary and Bernie Followers together.

Rather than anti-Trump memes? Seriously, just providing the sensible alternative should be enough. I think all these insults and attacks are just fueling the guy. I think he's already gotten too much attention.
