Poor communities often have long lines at polling stations.

This has been a problem, by design, for a long time.

What if we organized volunteers to rent trucks, loaded them with snacks, water and chairs and parked them in front of the polling station?
On election night, we could ensure that those in line stay in line by providing them with food,water and a place to sit. Perhaps even have some music and turn it into a neighborhood party.
I have looked online and cant find any organizations doing this.

What do you guys think?

The next time an elected Republican official tries to claim that meeting with hostile foreign governments for opposition research is “normal”, the MSM needs to call them on it.

So please, give us the details of all the times you met with a hostile foreign government. The #FBI and the #CIA would be very interested to hear how normal you think it is.

Maddow was wrong. It was four prongs

Maddow was exceptional tonight but during her segment on the 3 pronged Russian attack..something struck me.

Lets review.

Prong 1: the Russians infiltrated Stae voter registration

databases.

Prong 2; they hacked the DNC email server.

Prong 3: use Prong 1 and Prong 2 to infiltrate and influence Social Media.

With their stooge in the White House, they need a fourth Prong to make sure all this doesn't go to waste. They need to protect their asset.

They need to keep the Republican Party in line.

Prong 4: They hacked the RNC server.

Probably prior to the DNC hack.

If you add this fourth Prong, the blackmail of the Republican Party, using emails that must contain horrific shit..if you add that Prong in..everything starts to make sense.

Let that sink in and then look at all that is happening right now.

It explains the republicans inaction .

What do you think?

Focus on the big picture: Republicans turned their back on their country

After it was revealed that Russia hacked both the RNC and the DNC and was actively seeking to undermine our democratic process.. no one from EITHER party should have met with ANYONE from Russia. They should have been repudiated immediately.

But instead... they got countless meetings, handshakes and praise.

This is unforgiveable.

Why the Dems arent pushing this is beyond me.

Operation Trumpty Dumpty. Are you in?

its time to fight back. And I have a plan.

Trump’s greatest weakness is his fragile ego.

He obsesses over ratings, over how he is presented in the media.

By all accounts he is acting more erratic every day. His staff is demoralized and barely holding it together.

i propose we get a million people to get on Twitter and follow him. He will get a momentary ego boost from his surge in followers.

We wait for him to Tweet. Then we unleash holy hashtag hell on him.

#FuckTrump trends number one for days on end.

Top comments to his tweets are ones denouncing him.

He will see it and he will fume.

Twitter is his safe haven right now. Let's take that away from him.

His minions will have to exert so much time and energy controlling him, they won't have time to do anything else.

I'd also love to see hundred of towns and cities pass ordinances that make January 20th a special Day to mark the anniversary of the smallest inauguration crowd in modern day history.

#inaugurationenvy

i am on Twitter and ready to roll.

Who is with me?

Lets push Donald over the edge

A call to action. Simple and effective. Get on Twitter and subscribe to Trump.

Every time he tweets respond with a #FuckTrump hashtag.
He won’t know how many of his followers are real followers. The top trending hashtag will be FuckTrump.. he will have to see that.

It will drive him insane.

How far down this rabbit hole are we going to go?

I am becoming increasingly alarmed at the reports coming from the Oval Office regarding our President’s behaviour. Krugmans Piece and several other sources are all saying the same thing.

(the second link is especially disturbing)
The man is mentally ill and unstable. His ego is monumental and needs to be babysat so he doesnt explode. They have to limit his access to TV.

I am trying to predict what is next for our Dear Leader? I assume the media will put their foot down at some point and Trump will punish them by kicking them out of the press briefings altogether and start his own News Channel.
Perhaps a radio broadcast.

He will become more and more isolated, letting others do his work and public appearances.

He will insist his lackeys make triumphant praises about him in public.

How far will the Republicans let this go?
Predictions?

Has Donald Trump been properly vetted?

The Electoral College should step up and ask that DJT be properly vetted. Since this is a historic election and DJT has some shady business dealings, AND we haven’t seen his tax returns. I think it would be in the best interest of the American public if the CIA and the FBI conducted a through background check of DJT and his associates. Am I off base here?

We have an opportunity

To reshape the Democratic Party into the progressive juggernaut we all know she can be.

THIS is our time.. so lets have those fights.. lets hash it out right now.

Who are our leaders?

What are our platforms?

How do we best accomplish them?

Most importantly: how do we get our message to those that need to hear it.
So get out your anger. Scream and yell and have at it.

Because in the end we will be better for it and we are on the same team.

This is probably your only chance, so make it count

I joined Dailykos during the election of 2000. Since then I have endured an unending litany of incompetence and rage inducing behavior from those in the Republican party. This election is probably my only chance to see Republicans virtually wiped off the electoral map. A chance like this will not come again in my lifetime, and maybe yours as well. So I plan to make it count.
I pledge to send $100 to ActBlue if I get 50 recs.

I would love for you to join me and create a giant moneybomb to push these Senate seats to the Blue column.

Here is a short trip down memory lane, if you are not feeling enraged enough.
Paste your pledge and your “ Rage Inducing Republican moment” below. Lets get this thing started.

The non response to Hurricane Katrina		The Abu Ghraib atrocities
Sarah Palin		Voter Suppression
Terri Schiavo		When they deleted all their emails and would only speak to the 911 commission in pairs.
The shutdown of the 2000 recount		Dick Cheney

The choice

Americans have a choice. You can believe one of two things.
That Hillary has orchestrated the biggest coup in history by convincing
the FBI,
the CIA,
swing state election officials,
polling companies,
the Department of Defense,
the court system ,
newspaper editors of EVERY major newspaper in the USA,
foreign officials, and the TV media

to rig the election in her favor:

That Donald Trump is the worst candidate this nation has ever seen and no one in their right mind wants him near the presidency.

What is the more plausible scenario?

Trumps rabid followers deserve a heartfelt thanks

For years the Republican party has been engaging in dogwhistle politics.. wink wink, nudge nudge messages to the racists and sexists among the faithful… intermingled in with the so called “Religious Right”.

But now.. the masks (or should I say hoods) are off. Tired of being shackled by the “Establishment” (their word for “Decent Society”), they have emancipated themselves and are free to show their true colors and bare their teeth. And the Religious Right is following them right off the cliff. All that is left are the true conservatives. The ones with a brain and love of country and a willingness to reach compromise, to maintain dignity and respect. We should welcome them with open arms.

We don’t want a one party system after all.
