Seriously. When they go low, we need to respond with something that leaves a mark. Forget these someday-Im-going-to-do-something warnings. Forget another committee meeting to study the last committee meeting. Forget calling a press conference to tell us theres a problem we already knew about....a year ago. Enough!
Please....dont tell me we have to give it more time or that threads bashing Democrats arent allowed. Im a citizen first, and my country is in very serious trouble.
Name one institution Republicans havent tried to destroy. Name one department thats managed by someone who actually cares about it. Name one national tradition that hasnt been hacked up. Name a U.S. ally that hasnt been treated badly, a social service program that hasnt been partially dismantled. Name one competent cabinet member or one truthful spokesperson.
Find a law that hasnt been ignored or a racist that hasnt been favored. Find a single person around Trump with a kind, loving heart. Just one. These are people who support caging children and inviting Russian spies into the Oval Office.
What an unbelievable state of affairs. We have a president who specializes in lying and cruelty and somewhere around 4 out of 10 Americans who have no problem with it. Ive had enough. Its time we came out swinging.

Those who have served in the Military will recognize this admonishment: It's time for Dems to grow a pair, start taking names and kicking ass.
