Trump impeachment Movement

Yes, we all want it to happen. However, until the GOP finds its morals and backbone and retrieves its testicles from 45, nothing will happen. We all beat the drum, but not a damn thing will happen. Ever. The Republican Party needs to own treason, pure and simple. However, they don't care and why should they? We have nothing to offer as a viable alternative.

The Liberals (us) need to do several things VERY SOON:
* Figure out what the hell we stand for
* What we won't tolerate
* Craft the message
* Send it out

Once we have a real alternative to the screwups that are running this country now, THEN we can begin the campaign to take back our land.

OK, so this seems like it's in the wrong place, but it's not. We are supposed to debunk right wing Trumpery here. I think we need to debunk our own messages as well. We need to closely examine our own propaganda and taste our Koolaid with discernment. IMO, we have no real alternative yet. It's in our hearts, and we all know it when we hear it in the messages from Elizabeth Warren, Bernie Sanders and others. Now we must come together and learn to craft, then articulate the Message.

Speak for yourself.

WE know what we stand for. We are constantly crafting messages and sending them out. Nancy Pelosi is holding a town hall right now and apparently CNN is carrying it.

Once we have a real alternative to the screwups that are running this country now,


On THIS planet, Democrats have lots of good real alternatives. There is no Planet B.

Republicans are in the majority and most americans are too ignorant to understand what is going on. All trump has to do is sound gung ho and wave the flag and voila - he wins again
