The trick was seeing what was going on before trying to "teach the dems a lesson". Now all you can do is ride the train and wait for endless lawsuits to playout with disingenuous participants

Nixon was already impeached by now

There is a lot more you can do. Stop being defeatist. This kind of attitude got us into the train wreck that is 21st. Century US in the first place. And not accepting the oligarchy presenting you two flavors of oligarchy to vote between is part of what needs to be changed.

I fucking love the new defeatist approach. What makes you think you can do anything for the next 4 years that isn’t just stopping them?

Ok I stopped being a defeatist, now what?

It's nice that you listed exactly zero things to do. Go tell Musker you don't accept him running all branches of government and having your info on his private servers, see how that works out for you. I'm not making excuses to do nothing (or being defeatist) or telling people not to participate in politics, but the US has a king atm

Consumer boycotts, blocking plants, demonstrations...

Good luck with those. You don't seem to understand what a king is.
