I agree. The Democrats need a plan for sure, especially not cooperating or compromising with Republicans. For example, when a vote is called, instead of saying yea or nay, they need to stand and say things like the following:
'I will not cooperate with this fascist government so I will not vote'.

'I will not participate in harming Americans so I cannot not vote for this bill.'
'This bill is illegal under the Constitution so I will not break the law by voting for it.'
'This bill undermines and attacks the Bill of Rights so I will not vote for it.'
'This proposed law will endanger the safety of people of colour (or immigrants, Muslims, LGBTQ, or PW Disability, etc) so I cannot and will not vote for this bill.'
'The purpose of this bill is to exact revenge on the President's perceived enemies so in good conscience, I cannot vote for it.'
'This bill stands against every American value that has made this country great so I will not vote it.'
'This bill will irreparably harm the good standing of America in the world. I cannot and will not vote for it.'
'This bill benefits the enemies of America and our way life so I will not vote for it'.
'This bill has the potential to foster hate and violence. In good conscience, I cannot vote for it.'
'This bill proposed by the Gang that Couldn't Shoot Straight may have dangerous consequences.' LOL
That said, I feel it is not helpful to merely trash the Democrats. I think this has the potential to make people throw up their hands and just not act or vote. Rather, provide ideas for things they can do. Republicans control the presidency, House, Senate and the Supreme Court so what they can do in Congress is limited.
Excellent suggestions and an excellent post. Thank you. Is there any way to send this to our Democratic representatives? I live in Central CA so my rep is a Republican. But those who have Democratic representatives should copy and paste this and send it to them en masse.

Thank you. It can be emailed if you have the email addresses for the Representatives.
