Trump Watch May 19 2017

Day 120:

Jesus Christ….Someone somewhere has figured out that if you just do A million evil things at once, people will only call you out on about half of them, and you can get away with the rest.  Case in point, Trump and his republican assholes are on a rampage through this country.  Here is a small list of things going on right now:

Tell them in no uncertain terms that you want them to fight to stop Trump from doing these things. Tell them you will be watching them closely on how they vote, and will hold them accountable during the next election if they cave to Trump.  You can also call other states congress people and threaten to donate to their opponent if they don’t do what you want.

Monitor your congressperson:

Keep track of how your senator is voting on cabinet picks here, so you can call them up and give them hell if they vote for any of these worthless fuckers.

See how your elected representatives are voting for or against Trump.

Elections!

Also be sure to keep track if you live in a district with an upcoming flip-able seat (flip to the left that is)
