We are going to have to appeal to the common sense of the republicans in power. None of this they are in a cult and then move on.
As far as voting (if), we appeal to our base.
But Dems have to be making speeches to reps (most likely in a one on one situation) to help them understand that we are in a dictatorship. If we cant make them see the light then the American experience is over. Reagan was right about one thing, we were the shinning beacon to the world. A country that started out saying all men are created equal. A country with the most recognizable monument on the planet saying: Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free
This wasn't a country talking about royalty or the elite, it was a country that was talking about everybody. The world felt it and a lot of the world emulated it. Even former monarchies.
I think we are in a war right now, the bullets just haven't been fired yet, As I said in the beginning we are approaching the brink.
we all need to act like deprogrammers. And understand how to get there.
