I read Kos’ article, “Yes, I'm angry.”, the other day and it struck a nerve. I’ve been wandering in a sort of dreamlike haze, that I would wake up one morning and this was all a bad dream. But reality has set in and with it anger. That’s not a bad thing if it’s channeled for positive gain. So writing this, for me, is cathartic and an even somewhat therapeutic.
I’m not going to hold punches anymore and settle for some high minded utopian mindfulness and sit back and read another talking head’s analysis on why we lost or how we lost. The Left loses because we’re a bunch of fucking pussies. Because we think we’re smarter and above the fray. Because we’re too busy playing 4D Chess with a pigeon who knocks over all the pieces and shits on the board, all while complaining about the rules. We lose, almost fucking always, because we’re afraid of not being PC or holding back what we really mean to say because we might offend this group or that group.
Less than 80,000 people in 3 states have given the White House to a sociopathic circus clown. Racist, redneck, NASCAR watching, evangelical retards who live and breath Fox News and wouldn’t know what the truth is if it hit them upside the head, elected this man child to the highest office on the planet. Fuck them. I said it. They will NEVER vote for a liberal, ever. So fuck them. They believe in a fantasy world devoid of any semblance of reality. And the world they believe in is NEVER coming back because it never existed in the first place. Most of these people will be dead in the next 20 years anyway so why would we ever let them define our future?
We cannot wallow in self pity or sit back and point fingers. NOW is the time to organize a 4 year filibuster that extends from the first day to the very last day. The point is very simple: either every single Democrat in office follows the game plan or they will receive no future support from progressives, liberals or Democrats; no funding, no GOTV support; nothing. This is all out warfare, it will be dirty, it will be painful, there will be casualties during the course of this and if you’re not ready to fight this war then get out of the way for someone else who is ready. I don’t care what Pelosi or Schumer or anyone in the DNC has to say about this. They WILL get on board or they will get out of the way. Period. We must make this clear to everyone in the party, this is WAR and there is no peace to be discussed. Otherwise you can sit back and sing Kumbaya while Nancy and Chuck write up the Goldman Sachs “Infrastructure” Bill or talk about how Medicare needs some “tweaking”.
The only way to beat a bully is to punch him right in the mouth or kick him right in the balls. We have to troll the trollers on an epic level never before seen. Plain, simple, easy to understand. What the GOP did to Obama for 8 years is going to look like hop scotch when we are done. Forget about taking the high road, forget bipartisanship. This is a knife fight in an alley with a killer. You can either WIN this fight or you can curl up in a ball of high road bipartisanship and die. Those are the only 2 options left.
- Get to work. We need a dedicated website that has a very clear and concise history of every inflammatory statement made by Drumpf or his administration nominees. We need videos, audio, quotes, citations. It must be searchable and mobile friendly. Every Democratic Congressman, Senator and aid will have it on their phones and tablets for regular use. Every single day.
- Mr. Drumpf is in clear violation of the Constitutional emolument clause regarding his business. He will never give it up and he very clearly cannot hand it over to his family. This is his Achilles heel and it is one that will have to be fully resolved through thorough congressional investigation. He MUST fully divest himself AND his family of his business if intends to be President. Period. He has no other alternative. Or he can simply walk away from the Presidency. He should have known this well before he even began a campaign. In my mind he cannot even assume office until this issue is fully resolved and every single Democrat needs to continue to push this narrative until Drumpf walks away or divests himself. Starting NOW. This is our Constitution and every member in Congress and the Senate abides by the blind trust rule, Drumpf must be no different.
- This is not some harebrained idea. This is by far the most solid immediate way to cause major problems for the GOP and Drumpf in particular.
- This will also mean that he will have to open the books for a full Congressional audit of his lenders and debts. Something I think would shine a light on his very deep Russian associations. He doesn’t want that. They don’t want that.
- Day One. Push for impeachment immediately.
- Delegitimize at every opportunity. Never call him by Mr. President or even use the name Trump. Always call him the Electoral College Winner or Mr. Drumpf. Nothing else. When/if questioned by anyone in the Press/Media remind the questioner of the facts. This is a two fold strategy. One is to deligitimize the man and the second is to deligitimize the Electoral College. Both are required. In lighter conversations call him President Pussy Grabber or Rapist in Chief. Juvenile? WHO CARES!! Do you know what they called Obama for 8 years?
- State of the Union — All Democrats will attend but will remain standing with their back turned to the dais. No applause.
- Do NOT work with the GOP on a single solitary Bill. NOTHING. Absolutely nothing whatsoever. Every single Bill will receive ZERO Democrat votes and every Bill will be a knife fight. Make it slow and painful. Use every single procedural tactic available to delay and throw things out. Filibuster each and every single Bill in the House and the Senate. Even mundane Bills like naming Post Offices. Delay, drag on, obfuscate every single matter up for discussion. While filibustering use quotes from Mr. Drumpf at length. Cite dates, times, location. Make it factual. Use the new website tool. “On such and such date the Electoral College Winner insulted Women by saying ……..” Do this for hours on end.
- Forget coming together and healing and all that other bullshit. Put it out of your mind. Drumpf will NEVER apologize for anything he has ever said. So we have to continually remind the Press/Media of what he said and when he said it and most importantly that he has not apologized directly to those he has offended. Tell them to play the video. Use the website tool play the video for them.
- During Policy and Bill committee meetings ask to include language directly in the Bill that the Electoral College Winner will apologize to minorities, women, etc. for statements made on X dates.
- Don’t ever let the Press/Media change the narrative always bring them to task and remind them of their duty and failures. Again the website tool should be used.
- Every Nominee gets rejected. Remind the world of who these people are, what they stand for and the things they have said. The website tool will have this information as well. No one gets confirmed without a nasty and dirty fight. Make it painful and no one is out of bounds.
- Investigate. Litigate. Every single thing about Mr. Drumpf’s past. His ties. His businesses. Everything. There is plenty to go on.
- Every single day remind the Drumpf voters how bad they got played by this conman and his cronies. Remind them of the “swamp draining” he promised while reminding them of who hes tapped for nominees. Make them own it. They’ll never vote for a liberal anyway so you’re not losing a friend or a voter.
These are but just a few tactics that must be employed while waging this war. And I encourage you to add to the list and work on the finer points. But rest assured this must to be a war if we have any hope for the future. If not, then the America we all know and love will be gone. Based on his short list of nominees America is fucked. When he and his cronies get finished, Drumpf is going to make Bush seem like the Rose Bowl parade . We’re talking a complete and total economic collapse, war, poverty and human rights abuses the list goes on and on. The people he is hoping to put in place have made it their life’s mission to dismantle and privatize the United States and with Drumpf in office that WILL happen. You can either fight them here and now or you can watch as your children and grandchildren suffer; the choice is yours.
EDIT: I do have to apologize for the use of retard in my post. No offense was meant. I clearly could have used imbecile, fool, or several dozen other words in it’s place. But I will leave it there because it touches on part o my point.
I will not apologize for the word pussy. In the context it refers to a loser who does not stand up for himself. These are the words adults use in the real world. Get over it.
The comments below have been very insightful and quite proven my point. I raise a call to War and the PC word police come out in droves to correct my disregard for political correctness. I thought this was the Peoples Judean Front. Not the Judean Peoples Front. Are you fucking kidding me?? Really?? Out of all that all you got was 2 shiny objects to get angry about?
You’re not angry that you’re about to lose your right to choose? Your health insurance? Your economy? Just 2 little adult words and it’s time to go home?
THIS IS PRECISELY MY POINT!!
Liberals are already viewed as granola crunching, gluten free, lactose intolerant, Volvo driving, helmet wearing, politically correct, wimpy, LOSERS.
Thats how WE, right now, are viewed. We are viewed as losers and we do nothing but reinforce that because we let them walk all over us and never fight for our voice to be heard. And we do it every time. So it’s up to you. Let them define who we are. OR. Show them they are wrong. There's only one way to beat bullies and thats a head on confrontation. No one is going to give you anything, you have to fight tooth an nail for it.
