I’m not done fighting because I’m getting angrier by the day. And I can stay mad a very long time. I refuse to give in.

Unfortunately, the Dump can stay mad, too. That's what keeps him going, his madness in all respects.

Then we see who lasts longer, and who breaks first. 5-12 million (so far) of us...or one rapidly dementing rotting pumpkin

Let him. I'm willing to bet he is not too terribly long for this plane of existence. Every time he goes into a rage, a few more capillaries burst, a few more brain cells give up.

His aides and staff have to be hiding a lot of his disability and mental impairment at this point.

They couldn’t hide it at the G7. His frailty was on display in front of the World, including multiple reports of his odour. His decline is so rapid his handlers can’t cope!

I've been watching you, and your changes for years now. And I have to say, although I never thought I'd say it, that you have become a mensch. (Sp? I don't speak Yiddish!) And your writing chops are now fairly awesome. I plan to keep reading what you write for two reasons: first, your sincerity can not be doubted, and second, your conversion to a hero for Democracy can no longer be denied. My sincere gratitude my brother. I hope this all works out very well for you. I guess I should add that you are now pretty much the equivalent of a Thomas Paine for these times. Congrats.

Power to the Resistance

People need to rise against this tyranny! Tyrants always snuff themselves out. They overestimate either their powers or their support and the regime comes tumbling down.

Every GOP politician who supports Trump needs to removed from office.

Power to the people! We all must fight back. Nothing is more powerful than righteous dissent against tyranny. Take back July 4 from MAGA.

Resist every single day. 2025 is not the year to be politically polite, if there ever was a time to wear your resistance, that time would be now. I'm wearing this "We the People will NOT comply with tyranny" shirt 👇

here's the thing i remind myself. Trump is 79 years old. Every day he looks more crazy, more tired, more ill. He won't last forever, in fact, I'd be surprised if he lasts until midterms. Once he's gone, the movement will fracture. There will be infighting, backstabbing, a dozen guys all trying to replace him but they won't be able to. Whatever it is that MAGA finds so great about him (Gag), the other people don't have it. All those millions of magas will also fracture, some following one guy, some another, some another until they are nothing but a bunch of different lunatics with no power.

I follow people on the front in Ukraine not just out of interest in the war, but as a reminder that frankly we haven't seen anything nearly as bad as they are seeing. They're still fighting. Don't wimp out! The more of us that are visible, but more others are encouraged to be visible.

Thank you for the truth in what you wrote. I feel sort of helpless &sidelined right now due to a surgery I must recover from. It helps me know folks are out there fighting and I will be again in the months to come!

I'm ready to Convert every business the Billionaires own into a Cooperative in the style of Bob's Red Mill, if you you need an example. Let's do what corporate raiders do, drive down there value, then force a sale. Will it work to Boycott them so hard they sell the businesses to the employees? Anybody know some other ways to make it happen?

You are correct, Michael, but the battle between fact and fiction, truth and lies, and data and conspiracy is not going to be easy at all. So many people, some I am related to, are so embedded in the cult, fox news, joe rogan, orange jesus, lies, hate, racism, violence, and chaos that they have no grasp of reality. How do you talk with a raging, scatterbrained, psychotic, lunatic? It doesn't happen. There might be a few who come to their senses after a great deal of deprogramming, but the only way these people will learn anything is when it gets so bad for them that they no longer can believe their own lies.

As their safety net rots, their support system crumbles, hospitals close, their kids go hungry and without health ins, their crops rot, their jobs disappear, their FEMA handouts end, their NOAA weather alerts fail to announce ongoing tornadoes, and as they have their home foreclosed and their small businesses fail due to lack of customers and workers, maybe the light finallygoes on in their dim, deluded, disturbed brains. It's really the only hope.

The mind boggling nonsense I have heard from maga trash like mike lee, will simply lead to more violence and needless deaths from deranged trump loving murderers. They are mentally sick, and morally bankrupt. The real hope is that there are more of us than there are of them, and we make our voices heard in the streets and our votes count at the ballot box. .

It's been established that there are, in fact, more of us than there are of them. Based on the stats I've seen, plus my own observations, die-hard MAGAs constitute only 24-31% of the electorate.

The challenging problem for us is the percentage of would-be voters who have just given up. Rousing them from their apathy will do much to topple MAGAs grip on our country. Perhaps recent events, and others yet to unfold will light fires under them, without our even having to fan the flames.

Well said. Thanks for those observations and details. I have become so accustomed to tyranny of the minority that I sometimes believe the majority is the minority. Hopefully between trump's mental, physical and emotional decline, maga will go back to hiding under their primordial rocks where they belong. trump is a fad that has seen its most fashionable days end long ago. Lighting the flames of the ambivalent will also help end this tyranny.
