The last week has put your RW red tRump, Putin bromance, science and women hating supporters into a kettle and they're feeling the heat, trust me. I'm seeing it all around me. They're hearing your rhetoric about how they are unpatriotic and how despicable they are for turning their backs on our nation, putting party over country and straddling us with the likes of this illegitimate Putin puppet and his swamp of deplorables.
They're on their heels, on the defensive. KEEP IT UP! KEEP THE PRESSURE ON UNTIL DEMOCRACY IS RESTORED!!
This helps explain some of why the inauguration was such a resounding failure. tRump's support is eroding and that is because you are being unabashed & vocal.

(3,847 posts)realize they will lose all their benefits, that they have paid for their whole life, are going to get ripped away, maybe they will do something. I think that is what it will take.

(22,670 posts)They have fcuked us over. But instead of pounding their chests at this early stage of transition in our country, you and I, we have been putting heat on them and it's taking its toll on them. That's the part I want to make clear.
BE VOCAL and take back America!

(46,166 posts)He's originally from the area of NYC where I was raised. He's also retired. We had a friendly chat at the deli counter.
And then in a low murmur he asked me if I voted for DT. He spoke so softly so I asked him to repeat his question. When I laughed and told him, "Hell, no!" he then said, "You're a never Trumper?". And I told him yes, of course.
Our conversation remained light. I wasn't going to jump down his throat. I'll see him again, for sure. I just told him that, in fact, I had been a caseworker for years back in NYC and that I bled blue.
I'm sure we'll meet again at the supermarket. There will be opportunities. This week has been awful for the country. We'll know soon how Social Security and Medicare benefits will be affected. That will affect him directly. At that point I'll be able to give it to him between the eyes of just how destructive his fear of brown skin is going to be for the nation.
So I agree with you. They're starting to feel the heat.

It will require them losing healthcare, but at some point, some will catch on. Some never will.
