-Have friends or family in RED STATES do the same. Every day! Have them protest in front of local congressional offices.

-Demand paper ballots and hand counting! At the local, state and national level. Demand this in the daily call. The Netherlands just initiated this.

-Write letters to the local papers.

-Join organizations, Indivisible, etc.

-Speak at any permitted public setting, before city council meetings, etc.

-Talk at professional, sports, social group, etc, settings.

-Send a donation to your favorite group, even $10.

-Create or participate in social-media groups.

-Run for office.

-Make up your own bumper stickers: Illegitimate, NPV NOW, Resist, No, Trump=Putin, Impeach, You're Fired, etc.

-Demand your state reps approve the National Popular Vote initiative!

-Do your own action, but DO SOMETHING. And pass it on.

Power can be changed by public actions and legislative fortitude, which has been sadly missing by the Dems. Judicial decisions will play a part, but the heavies are the public actions and congressional spine.

Of course, the media is essential. They gave the guy a pass, never called him a liar, and destroyed Bernie. Unless there is new Dem leadership, tactics and strategy, the Dems will remain powerless.

Time for a change, Democratic Party. If not, I suspect there will be a new party in some form.
