Related: About this forumGreat Article on The Guardian. Check It Out Now.
Hate to harp on the same subject, but Moira Kelly has written a great piece for The Guardian titled Political Correctness: How the Right Invented a Phantom Enemy. It is a long read, but there is something there we can build on. Somebody needs to use this and articles like it to blow a hole in the rhetoric of Trump and Co. This is the best one I've read so far on this subject. We have less than four years. It may seem a long time, but in preparation terms, we have to get going. Check it out.
