not the wealthy. The best we can do now is to speak up to our elected Senators and Representatives and let them know that we expect them to stand up to Trump and his merry band of assholes. We need to focus on the 26 elections and those that happen before then at all levels. Let them know, especially the Republicans that we will not support them if they continue to ignore his anti-American policies.

If we can survive the next 4 years, I think a lot of this will change, hopefully we have not alienated the rest of the world by them.

Hard for me to believe this is the nation we have become, it is time for people to stop ignoring this by not voting - we have a binary choice when it comes to our elections - these 3rd party and boycott votes are dumb and meaningless.
