Thank you Alan, very well said. I have been thinking a lot and promoting the idea of a mass "in the streets" action, across the country (think Belarus?) -- with millions and millions, as many coalitions as we can muster, the black groups in particular and Stacy Abrams, Beto, musicians, celebrities, and maybe we go for a few weeks or months, bus caravans, meet ups, education opportunities...with us all in BLACK to show that we are MOURNING for our democracy and and we are OUTRAGED! We need some creative folks and producers! Maybe a GoFundMe idea??
Jeanne: I wish we could pull off something like that! I really think people (except the Trumpers) are so sick of Trump and Trumpism we are getting complacent. This is no time to be complacent.
"Do you think the Dems are truly aware of the peril we are in? " No, I do not. The last thing we need right now is a disjointed Democratic party. It does seem like that's what we have though? Excellent piece by Greg Sargent in today's Post about the peril our Democracy is in. I believe it's real. Apparently over 100 political scholars and rising, think it's real.
