stop tip-toeing

Trump; his campaign, his tweeting, his name calling, his presence... is inciting the anger, the violence, the evil that is growing in this country...


just like right after a shooting, it is past time to call for "thoughts and prayers"


now... after violent acts, it is well past time to innocently ask, "what do you think is causing this uptick in violence?"

it is well past time for a very serious conversation about the vileness of the Trump Administration and the Republicans refusal to act...

...The use of mass, public communication, usually against a particular individual or group, which incites or inspires acts of terrorism which are statistically probable but happen seemingly at random.

tRump* IS MOST CERTAINLY responsible.

I'm personally not tiptoeing, I saw this coming and it's only going to get worse. I call them the MAGA Militia, and they are hell bent on another Civil War, and the Rethugs and Trump want it too.

The more chaos and fear, the more they can take away from us. Don't you get it?
Fascism and This shit go hand in hand, it's a coup, no doubt IMO

5. trDump will transition this Cold Civil War...

... into a Hot Civil War if things get real bad for him and Mueller comes banging on his door calling.

Then trDump be will kick it up a notch, see if people heed his warning. If not,.. he will kick it up more additional notches until he has excited massive violence and mayhem from his foot soldiers.

Then his Storm troopers, Fascists, Nazis, Proud Boys, 3% militia, sovereign militias, white supremacists, and other Fascist goon squads like Erik Prince's privatized army will line up and come to his aid and defense to keep this coup de tat in full form, thriving, and functioning.

These Fascists will not go away quietly now that they have had a taste of total and absolute power.

The longer we appease them, the longer we hope for the best of any angels left among their ranks stepping forward and curtailing this insanity with a spark of patriotic behavior, the more we wait for common sense to prevail - the more dangerous this Fascist junta becomes. For it will spiral totally beyond any ability to reign in, harness or any hopes to regain any control of the government they pilfered and plundered right out front under us.

We better put our heads together, we better come up with a plan, and we better be willing to act decisively when we make our move.

We do not want a Hot Civil War,.. that is the Fascists dream come true and they highest single aspiration to achieve their final and total grab for complete power.

Mr. Mueller the red emergency phone is ringing and ringing and ringing in the front lobby,... please pick up and answer the phone. We need your help to finally buckle down and take some long overdue remedial action and put this lost derailed run away freight train back on its tracks and headed towards the proper direction and destinations. Like pronto.
