Hi Lorri, are you able to get on the phone to Congress members with those of us not able to go and protest to wake them up.

Trump is pretty much a symptom of a country that has been corrupt for a very long time. If America wasn’t corrupt Trump would not be president, he would be in prison.

You don’t have to be out in the streets protesting because peaceful protest are a waste of time at least the way they’re done now.

You can get on the phone and call the enemies and the enemies are not just the lackeys and flunkies in Washington. The enemies are the people who buy themselves judges, politicians and heads of government agencies such as the Food and Drug Administration. It saddens and angers me that someone in this day and age has ALS, cancer and other curable maladies of the body and mind. The global medical industrial complex has cured anything since polio. Why do you suppose that is? Greed?

Fight and fight smart. Spend your days fighting anyway you can. Fight the corporate propaganda that oppresses everyone on earth. Come up with a plan for you and other disabled people and work the plan. Pick a corporate company like Apple that uses slave labor to make their products and call flood them or send them plain old snail mail from all over the country. Let everybody know that that company uses slave labor and our country the United States of fascist corporate America allows the importation of products made in China by slaves. If that motivates people to break plate glass windows on Apple stores, so what?

And to think he blamed Obama for golfing too much. We now have T who owns golf courses and spends a lot more time golfing, watching Fox praising him and isolating the USA from the rest of the world.

I never liked George W. Bush and never voted for him, but I recalled that Dubya refrained from golf (which he loves) during the Iraq War. I asked Google's AI Gemini, and she returned these facts, bearing in mind the AI can make errors:

GEMINI: Yes, President George W. Bush stopped playing golf in August 2003, shortly after the Iraq War began, to show solidarity with the families of fallen soldiers. He stated that playing golf during a war sent the wrong signal, saying, "I don't want some mom whose son may have recently died to see the Commander-in-Chief playing golf".

NPR NPR +2

Final Round: His last round of golf was in August 2003, which he cut short after being told a truck bomb had killed 22 people at the U.N. headquarters in Baghdad.

Decision Rationale: Reuters and NPR reported that Bush felt it was not worth continuing the sport, explaining, "I feel I owe it to the families to be in solidarity as best as I can with them".

Context: While he continued to visit troops and participate in other activities, he did not return to the golf course for the remainder of his presidency.

Respect for the troops, seriously?... suckers and losers. Just tools and props to be used for his ego. Both Bush's were men of integrity, T does not know what the word means. Both served as pilots and elder Bush flew and fought in WWII. Trump never wore a uniform except in military boarding school and skipped out on the draft during Vietnam. None of his sons have served. Truth be told, service does not pay enough and they look down on the troops as riff raff. Not ball room material.

Trump pulled that trick (use military for political support) on General Milley in 2020 when he lured him to a walk to St Johns Church. Military is apolitical and not used to support any political positions. General Milley had to apologize for the incident for which he had no control.

I don’t think the orange menace will be spending much time on the golf course. After taking out the Iranian leadership he has a big target on his back and so do the people who associate with him.

Americans are relatively stupid people and they’re thinking in terms of bullets when it comes to assassinations. I don’t think Trump is too worried about bullets even though he might’ve gotten nicked in the ear by one.

If he gets assassinated it probably won’t be an American that does it because I think most Americans who would like to see that happen realize that they don’t wanna see him turn into a martyr. If it happens it’ll probably be an Iranian or a Venezuelan.

I don’t think his stupid enough to go out in public. The Secret Service is probably telling him it would be a stupid thing to do because he’s made so many enemies that have the capability of getting rid of him. He probably won’t see him getting on Air Force One anytime soon.

I think it would be a mistake if he were to be assassinated. On the other hand, his boyfriend Putin is in hiding and it probably would not be a mistake if a Russian who’s been screwed over by Putin were to take Putin out in a drone swarm.

Well I would like to see her a lot of people who are the enemies from within arrested and kept in small dark prison cells for life.

The organizers in Tucson are hoping to stage an eight mile long protest from River Road to Oro Valley. I can't physically protest. 87 years old, on a walker, and record high temps. BUT I will be hanging out the window of our car, banging a very large metal spoon and a very large metal kettle. My son will be honking the horn along with all the other cars. I anticipate that I will be able to hear the cheers over the noise, just like in the past. (bang bang bang honk honk honk yell yell yell)

Americans do not support the fake weak president. We will show it tomorrow. We will show it in November. 💙💙💙

Be safe everyone! And if someone can think of a funny sign that involves Alan Cummings, LaLa and The Traitors, it would be much appreciated! I have too many ideas.

I hope that the protestors don't carry signage to the effect of liberals or democrats against trump. It needs to become Americans against trump. We need to reach a hand across the divide and say, "Join us." Drop the rhetoric against trump supporters. Many of them realize that they were badly fooled. Don't insult them. Invite them.

Unfortunately I have to work tomorrow from 4a to 4p I dont think Ill make any protests but I will definitely be there in spirit. Use 5 calls or resistbot both are excellent tools for registering dissent. I dont remember what the text is you send to resistbot but im sure its easily googled and 5 calls is an easy to use app

Now that I lay here with my twisted joints and now a new case of the flu know that I will be on the phone the whole time your protesting. Thank you for going the distance to all the 50501 protesters they diligent and safe. PS for those of you who are not going please get on the phone to Congress and wake them up.

To all Americans — let tomorrow numbers show the most important voice you all have — and let it confirm in solidarity and beyond any doubt how the election results cannot be anything other than Blue taking it back !! 💙

Probably the only thing that will motivate MAGA is punishment because the MAGA lacks normal human decency and empathy and compassion. They are driven by the same primitive instincts as Trump and the Republicans. Higher prices will motivate them but then again they might turn around and blame it on the Democrats because they’re a bunch of lying bastards. The MAGATS cult members and they are driven by their own inborn moral depravity not ideology. If they were actually conservatives they would not have supported Trump and lying Ted Cruz. Instead they would’ve supported Mike Pence who they soundly rejected. MAGA prefers liars, rapists, pedophiles, womanizer, cheaters and dangerous stupid people. Trump represents more than a leader to them, Trump is their role model. If there is ever a democratic majority they should concentrate on punishing the red states until they finally stop voting for Republicans.

Peaceful protests are total complete and utter bullshit because they don’t work. People like to credit Martin Luther King with the passage of the civil rights act in the voting act. That’s also a bunch of bullshit. The people that made that happen with the Black Panthers. The reason it passed is because there was violence and riots going on and the filthy Rich at the time we’re getting scared so they figured they would throw minorities in America a few crumbs to save their own necks.

The people in power and I’m talking corporate and the wealthy billionaire class are not at all intimidated when they see protests. They just watch and laugh from their ivory towers just like they did during occupy Wall Street. The only way they’re going to do the right thing as if they are scared shitless. I’m not advocating violence because that would backfire. We can still protest peacefully but effectively. Instead of running around in the streets and bitching and bitching and bitching which is something liberals are famous for and when they’re done bitching they start whining, we show up at the enemies’ front doors. We show up with their mansions and their corporate headquarters.

We remain silent. We bring signs telling them to step down or else. We tell them that they will be safer in prison.

We are armed with cameras and we point those cameras at them, their property and their vehicles.

When they send their thugs out to talk to us we remain silent or we just tell them to fuck off.

When they call the police for our peaceful but scary protest, we invoke all of our rights. We keep filming. If our rights are violated and they go hands-on then we attack.

If we are organized with military style precision and organization they get scared when the media shows up. If the media spins the narrative and a corporate sort of way then we target the media.

We do not employ violence but we employ intimidation. We legally terrorize the corporate ruling class. We don’t do those stupid boycotts because we’re already way past that point.

The Iranian regime probably has plans to commit acts of terror within the United States and I think they’re eyeing one of our criminal leaders or more than one of our criminal leaders. As we have seen from this incompetent war, Iran has the ability to fight back effectively in the same way Ukraine is fighting back and defeating Putin. When the corporate billionaire ruling class figures out that nobody is safe, they may do what they’re supposed to do and that is pay their fair share of taxes and give up 95% of the wealth because wealth is power.

I think what’s gonna happen is Americans are gonna get kind of angry and protest in the streets and yell and scream and bitch and bitch and bitch and bitch and bitch and bitch and bitch and nothing’s gonna change.
