The problem is, in the real world? Right now? There is no "resistance". I'd support them if they existed, but they don't.
Oh, sure, the "Hands Off" people have their performative protests to make themselves feel good, like they're actually doing something. They aren't.
Cory Booker got up and talked for 25 hours... which didn't actually block any legislation from passing, or block a nominee, or alter Trump policy on, well, anything really. But hey! He talked for 25 hours!
Show me a resistance to support.
And you? What are you doing to resist? Shit on those who are trying?
I'm pushing for an ACTUAL resistance.
What needs to happen is for all the Hands Off protests, especially the ones in Blue States where the citizens already agree with them, to migrate to D.C. and shut THAT city down for a month. Clog the arteries, make it impossible to function. Bring 300,000+ people to D.C. and shut it down.
Nobody cares about protests in Seattle, Portland, L.A., Chicago, etc.
