First, you can complain. Yell. Bang on the dinner table. Tell your family and friends the man is a dangerous fool. Explode every time you read something about him. Swear every time you see him on TV. Go ballistic when you listen to him or about him on the radio.
Complaining may feel good, but it won't help.
Your second choice: You can bury your head in the sand. Pretend he's not there. Stop reading the news. Turn off the TV and radio. No longer visit political Internet sites. When family or friends bring up his name, change the subject.
Burying your head in the sand may also feel good, but it certainly won't help, either.
You have a third choice. You can get active, and make it harder for Trump to damage America. This coming November 6, 34 senate seats, all 435 seats in the House of Representatives, and 36 governorships will be up for election or re-election.
Support primary candidates who will resist Trump. Mobilize to get out the vote. Organize so that November 6 becomes a total repudiation of Donald Trump and all he stands for.
Start right now. Find an Indivisible group near you. Go Indivisible.org and become part of the solution. If you're already in a blue state and want to reach out to purple or red parts of the country, visit swingleft.org or sisterdistrict.com.
Democracy is fragile, it requires all of us to protect it.
