(#6192) Decent folks from every political party are rallying against trump!

     Let me get this out of the way right now! We many democrats warned everyone else for years that trump was in politics specifically to usurp our democracy from us. He is of the demented mindset that we Americans are just childish with too much allowance and he wants to stop that. His idea is to make all of us worse off so we appreciate the little he will give us.. His hard core, not love but contempt, is his guiding light. Which explains why he is harming not only those who voted against him but those who he tricked into voting for him. He truly believes he is better than anyone else and should therefore rule over everyone else.
     Which is why now there are those who supported him and rallied to elect him are now backing off supporting him. Many are even coming out against him but there is a cost for that. That trump is a bully and does not hesitate from bullying, those who do speak against him will incur his painful wrath as a rule. Our society is such that our civility is baked into our behavior so no one will stand up to him in a way that threatens his actual being. So how do we exist in this environment where his word is more powerful than our response to it? We stop what we are doing and face him. Regardless of the outcome we the people are the only defense to his continuing onslaught to destroy our democracy!
     The outside world is watching how we Americans handle our own mess and although our mess affects them they are mostly waiting for us to clean it up. Just like we mostly wait for them to clean up their messes. The problem we have here in America is that the folks in the republican party who are the current majority power are not good folks as to honor and principle. They cower more than stand up for respect, fairness, or dignity. So many of them are dependent upon trump for their livelihoods as well. They sold their souls early on and are now paying the price for their ignoble dealings. Those who didn't sell their souls but are dependent upon trump for their jobs are hitting a critical juncture where they either keep moving forward with trump or finally cut their losses and join the civilized world and help remove him now through available means.
