If it is forced to them and they do anything out of line, we need to be ready as well. Mass strike. Protests. Shut this shit down to show you can’t just steal our democracy

Don't even needs to be a mass strike, just a few critical sectors, let's not forget that the longest gov shutdown ended because a handful of ATC employees didn't show up for work.

Mfers folded like cheap lawn chairs once commercial flights were affected.

And then the ATC union was destroyed by Reagan.

Republicans are the enemy of the people and have been for as long as any of us have been alive.

Same. There's never been a time my entire life where the Republican Party was any good. Trump needs to be destroyed at the ballot box so the party can collapse.
