Day 187:
The Irony:
These assholes are evil. By any definition. They don’t care about others, they are actively working towards hurting them, and for what? So that rich people can get even richer. They don’t care if they have to destroy the air the water, or the people, so long as they can make more money.
The problem with these immoral assholes, is that the only true way to beat them, is to be better than them. We have to gently remove them from office, with votes, and then make the world a better place over their objection, so that everyone can enjoy a better future, even them.

Tools of change:
Feel like this is all a bunch of bullshit? Want to do something about it?
Calling your government representative:
Call your Senator
Call your House Rep (Or use this spreadsheet)
Call your Governor

You can also use 5Calls.org if you are having a hard time figuring out what to say.

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:

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)
