The president is who he is. He has not changed. He will not change. The question that remains unanswered is: who are we as Americans?

His opposition knew he would never change.
Sad.

(12,712 posts)We are called to do whatever we can now to resist the iron fist that is pounding our foundation relentlessly.
We as Americans are now challenged to consider what part we need to play in withholding cooperation and denouncing compliance. The stakes are that high now. Our energy, focus and intent has to go that way, even if we are just an average citizen saying, "Well, little ol' me is not able to stop this." That's a luxury now. This is it. Pitch in even in little ways and add your momentum from day to day. You should be able to see the importance and reason for that at this point.
Ask yourself everyday what you can do. Let your intelligence and inspiration move you. Your democracy is in grave danger. What does that mean to you? Support those who resist. Find small ways to cut off the cooperation that the tyrant needs to function. When you know that it is only cooperation that gives a coward like that the safety to strike you start to get it and your ideas and actions will follow.
We really can't fail each other now. With solidarity and determination we can gain momentum and do what is necessary. Most of us have never been in such a pivotal and critical situation like this, but we will adapt and respond together.

not fooled
(5,801 posts)why should he? In his addled brain, not changing has always gotten him what he wants and he has yet to be stopped. I hope he's in for a tsunami-sized dose of reality come November, GOPee chicanery notwithstanding.

(3,450 posts)Drumpf, gop(rethuglican party), fox news, rightwing radio propagandists & rightwing Christian evangelicals are propaganda super spreaders that have forced the country and indeed the world into the precarious situation we are in now. We must find some ways to deal effectively with them and neutralize their venom.
