No, Trump, Not on Our Watch
'When Barack Obama was in office remember the good old days, just over a week ago, when we didnt wake up every morning and wonder what new atrocity was emanating from the White House Republicans were apoplectic about his use of executive orders. They called them unilateral edicts and power grabs. As Iowa Senator Charles Grassley once said in a floor speech: The president looks more and more like a king that the Constitution was designed to replace.
What a difference a week makes.
Now many of those Republicans are as quiet as church mice as Donald Trump pumps out executive orders at a fevered pitch, doing exactly what he said hed do during the campaign, for all of those who were paying attention: advancing a white nationalist agenda and vision of America, whether that be by demonizing blacks in the inner city, Mexicans at the border or Muslims from the Middle East.
Trumps America is not America: not todays or tomorrows, but yesterdays.
Trumps America is brutal, perverse, regressive, insular and afraid. There is no hope in it; there is no light in it. It is a vast expanse of darkness and desolation.
And that is a vision of America that most of the people in this country cannot and will not abide. That is a vision of America that has galvanized ordinary American citizens in opposition in a way that is almost without precedent. We are inching toward anarchy as both the people and the president refuse to back down. . .
The greatest two motivators of electoral activism in this country are a desire for change and durable fear: In Trump, those two are wed.'>>>
