for Kamala Harris.
1. She needs a few more cycles in D.C. to really learn the ropes.
2. The blood of the raging misogynists is still boiling, let's wait for the die off.

where they can pursue legislation and investigation and express their very partisan opinions.

As we've seen with both Clinton and Obama, all the good intentions and ideas in the world cannot work when one is faced with recalcitrant congress, yes, even with members of one's party.

tRump is just their useful idiot, the party will survive him and be just as racist, immoral and anti-American as before.

is the right phrase, but he shouldn't be aiming at republicans and their electorate. They are complicit and their electorate wants it. That message should be aimed at the left for those who believe that an election will rescue us from this nightmare. Wake up! Our elected officials, no matter how well meaning are not capable of fighting this fight alone. The ballot box can not be the only weapon we use to fight off this menace, and negotiations with traitors are not possible nor desirable. We must be ready to cripple this nation, we must be ready for the sacrifice that will entail. This can be done legally and without violence but it must be done before their grip on power is wholly complete. What can you do? Mass strikes and work walkouts, for one. Stop using credit for two. The heart of this treachery lies in money, and it is with money this evil can be brought to heel and made to surrender. But we must be ready for the sacrifice.
