They are the democratic politicians that continue allow Trump's nominees and pass his continuing resolutions. As for me, I donated, canvased and voted to prevent this for the last 10 years. I've contacted my representative, senetors, and my great governor. Unfortunately, I live in a blue state.

Same. The reality is there are limited things they can do in Congress. I agree we need them to do everything they can, but that won't be close to enough in any scenario. "They" are not the roadblock on saving democracy. We need people in the streets.

Unfortunately, we don’t have a unifying force like Trump. Fascism is naturally drawn to a cult of personality. Anti-fascist naturally oppose a unifying leader. We need to look at the maquis in France, 1942 as a model of opposition. Grassroots movements in opposing local Republican leaders.
