Summary
Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) is organizing grassroots events to oppose Trump’s policies, arguing that “Trumpism does not believe in democracy.”
In an op-ed, Sanders criticized Trump’s ties to Elon Musk, federal budget cuts, and media influence, warning of authoritarianism.
He cited Trump’s recent post likening himself to Napoleon and accused him of disregarding the rule of law.
The White House dismissed Sanders’ concerns, accusing Democrats of authoritarian tactics.
Typical liberal lack of imagination. How is it that republicans are easily able to consolidate power yet democrats are weak as hell and consistently fail to do anything at all? Vote for us! We’re powerless to do anything! But if only you voted harder we would! Ignore the fact that we confirmed trumps nominees!
He should be calling for a general strike and help organize it. Law and order is a joke, the country is collapsing at record speed. Our only non violent hope yet is an actual, French style, general strike. Protests don’t work and just play into trumps desire to declare martial law. But a general strike where people simply stay home and not work would grind this country to a halt and not trigger trumps bloodthirst to use violence against opponents.
And if that doesn’t work, violence it is. This country is fucking done and arguably it’s been done for a while now only everyday people are finally waking up to reality.
I think we’re in for it when the effects of burning through the federal government finally reach “normal” people.
General strike is a good idea.
so things like gernal strikes usually come from a major party who is part of the system one is governed under?
“Omg we’re powerless to do anything guess we’ll just suffer”
Fucking liberals.
This guy is living in a dream world.
I might guess he’s behind a candidate that gets less than 1% of the popular vote, but in reality is just here to shame you for supporting a substantially better party than the Republicans.
And you’re a sheep being sent to slaughter. The democrats are not acting at all like an opposition party and their strategy is beyond ineffective. The time to stop these people is now not when they’re herding us into fucking concentration camps.
Fucking liberals. 🙄🙄🙄🙄
We’ve tried nothing and we’re out of all ideas!
You think he wouldn’t use force? I’m all for a general strike, but if that day comes, I’m also prepared for the repercussions from a delusional president.
A traditional strike where people group up in protest, likely. A strike where people simply stay home like it’s covid all over again… impossible to attack
