I'm observing this from Canada. Trump gained his hold on the GOP with rallies before the 2016 election. Democrats need to hold large rallies. Start in California. Call it Democrat Rallies for America. Have well known, smart, witty speakers. Pound Trump and enablers relentlessly.

If that's the only response that the democratic party has, then American democracy is really teetering on the brink.

The Democratic Party has become a collection of senile knee bending cowards, afraid or too lazy to challenge Trump. Too many of them feel too fucking comfortable in their positions to rock the boat. They should all be primaried and have their cowardice exposed.

No one was, or at least shouldn't have been surprised at the Trump Musk breakup. We're in a place where nothing surprises or shocks us any more. And no one will be surprised if they suddenly reconcile. We've become numb, expecting, and for many, accepting anything. Acceptance is a bad thing.
