    The big question is if we are too late for community organizing?? I mean we are in a situation where the House Speaker is literally refusing the seat an elected member of Congress, and there is nobody there to hold him accountable.

    All of the work at the community level could be moot if we are already way past all of this, and the only opposition that can do anything is more revolutionary. Throughout history we see that when a tyrannical dictator does what we all think Trump is likely to do in 2026, and especially in 2028, community organizing to win local elections isn't what takes that dictator out. Usually its ALOT more messy, dramatic, somewhat violent, and certainly revolutionary.

    I just hope it's not too late and the No-Kings/Indivisible model can be effective quick enough to wield real effective power before Trump and his regime do what we all know they are planning to do in weeks, and months... not years and decades.

    The Tea Party movement succeeded in dumbing down the electorate and now we can all see the effects of it.

    Makes more sense than a "no kings" waste of time session especially considering Trump was elected by a majority and enacted exactly what he said he would do - American people are sick of soft on crime, vulnerability to real women in sports and society, a very poor and open border in which anybody could come over without going about it the right way... all things That are no longer being ignored

    Basically, the no kings protesters are protesting democracy at work.... actually, based on video Interactions with several of them they don't even know what they are protesting about lmao

    Indeed, Americans are sick of the 6 Jan insuurectionists, and Trump being soft on them

    Could just as easily make the same rant OP made about any modern Democratic administration using/abusing/extending the authority of the executive branch.

    It just so happens OP hates Trump, hence the rant.

    It's especially funny in light of the fact Biden was just in office and we know he was only awake/ "working" 4 hours a day and never did interviews or answered to the press or anyone else.

    Country was run by a bunch of unelected Worm Tongues surrounding Biden.

    What a wonderfully Democratic thing that was :rolleyes:.
