It's the apathy that will kill us. We no longer care about our future as a nation. I am more afraid of Trump's presidency than I am of the end of the world.

I agree we have to resist. I have canvassed, donated, and phone banked for various progressive candidates. I phone banked for Kamala 4 hours a day for 100 days. But now I really think the only thing left to try is hitting these bastards where it hurts them the most -- in their pocket books. find out which corporations have donated to Trump and other republicans and which haven't. for instance, Home Depot is on the naughty list, Lowe's is not. Target is also good. Only shop where the corporation at least seems to be on the right side. Get off of face book, X, and use only Blue sky. you'll live, trust me. Make a stink about never buying a Tesla. NEVER shop through Amazon. pay more, but be guilt free if need be. Screw these guys. they're for sale. Show them we're not.

I don't have a lot of hope. There are a couple of things that might help a little bit. The Supreme Court can still stop some of this from happening and I think that Musk will be very concerned with his other problems which are getting worse all of the time. He may get tired of being around Trump. I am very worried.

How? No one -me included- seems to know what to actually do. The “system “ has failed. So, depending on it - the court system, the electoral system, and the media- is not an option. What to do? Would love to hear constructive concrete suggestions.

Nicely said David. Concise too. I didn’t know - and I bet few do - the fact you shared about Trump’s cabinet having 10 billionaires and so many others worth more than $100 million. “A government of the rich, by the rich and for the rich” - that’s a great motto we need to repeat when speaking to republicans and others who love Trump.

This is horrible! I'm not sure what I can do but I can't sit around and watch this happen. I believe that Musk bought this election so it's not fair and democratic
