This is how it is: Trump gets sworn in January 20th. Weāve still got 2.5-ish months under the Obama Administration. Between now and then thereās the chance to make a media circus out of Donald Trumpās upcoming sexual assault trial, creating more friction between him and his party, giving us at least a little breathing room in congress. Heās appointing three new judges this term, so checks and balances (which werenāt really adjusted well for a two-party system) wonāt be in good working condition for the Democrats (which counts third-party and non-voters and basically any minority because welcome to reality).Ā
So first thing: fight for that media circus. House reps will do ANYTHING for reelection. Friction within the party will force them to pick sides.
Second thing: VOTE IN 2018. Mid-term elections are a thing. ALL 435 SEATS OF THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES WILL BE CONTESTED. Go out and VOTE. We can win back the house. Thatās one victory we sorely need. 33/100 SEATS OF SENATE WILL BE CONTESTED. We can win that back, too. 38 GOVERNORSHIPS WILL BE CONTESTED. If your countyās red, time to turn that around. VOTE ON NOVEMBER 6TH, 2018.
The clock is ticking guys.
