Democracy is losing. Fraudulent election without a challenge. Fraudulent candidate without significant amount of resistance. Hope is dwindling as the most corrupt and least competent and most flawed individual in history is allowed to have a second illegitimate presidency. I don’t see how democracy will win in this scenario.

I agree, the deck seems stacked against all that is just and moral. But remember, decks are composed of cards, and this regime is a house built from them. One tug in the right place is enough to bring it crashing down. Just be clear of its path when it goes. That will be the real challenge. Mush will no doubt buy a well-stocked island to retreat to - probably already owns one, or several - but I doubt he will take his #1 "buddy" with him.

Did You ever read about Icelandic women striking for 24 hours in the 1950's to get more legislative, financial, educational etc. rights and power? They did nothing for 24 hours for family, job etc. They were enormously successful and have repeated the strike once or twice. Our powers are our $$, body, work. WE are needed in lots of areas and massive movements like Gandhi, MLK work over time. Make authoritarians poorer and less secure with passive resistance-do not submit/obey.
