We can't wait until November 2020 to do something about this man


Now is the time for all good people to come to the aid of our country. “Shoot them!” a Trump rally-goer screamed. Trump and the rest of the crowd laughed.” Now is the time for all good people to come to the aid of our country.

“You know, they have a word, it became old-fashioned. It’s called a nationalist.’ Trump said, “I am a nationalist.” Now is the time for all good people to come to the aid of our country. “You also had some very fine people on both sides.” Now is the time for all good people to come to the aid of our country.

“There are fresh affronts to democracy daily with Trump in the White House. But with the news that he and members of his administration plan to flout all congressional subpoenas no matter what the subject, Trump’s disrespect for the rule of law and constitutional norms has hit a new high (or low).” Now is the time for all good people to come to the aid of our country.

“Trump is using the bully pulpit of the presidency (emphasis on “bully”) to politicize the criminal justice system, punish politicians who won’t toe his line, and humiliate private citizens who dare to speak out against him.” Now is the time for all good people to come to the aid of our country.

America hasn’t always, or even usually, been governed by the best and the brightest; over the years, presidents have employed plenty of knaves and fools. But I don’t think we’ve ever seen anything like the collection of petty grifters and miscreants surrounding Donald Trump.” Now is the time for all good people to come to the aid of our country.

Without any effective challenge, Mussolini’s megalomania flourished. The crowds who gathered for his speeches cried Duce, Duce, Duce! We are yours to the end. Now is the time for all good people to come to the aid of our country. “Trump not only knows what he needs to say to get thousands of people to cheer — he also knows what to say to get them to boo.” Now is the time for all good people to come to the aid of our country.

Trump “has made himself the Great Dictator of the news cycle. He didn’t need to knowingly emulate anyone in the propaganda arts because he is directed by his two dominant personal traits: narcissism and paranoia.” Now is the time for all good people to come to the aid of our country.

“They used to treat them very, very rough, and when they protested once, they would not do it again so easily,” he said, before lamenting "we've become weak." Now is the time for all good people to come to the aid of our country. US counties where President Donald Trump held a campaign rally saw a 226% increase in reported hate crimes compared to similar counties that did not hold a rally, political scientists at the University of North Texas said in a Washington Post analysis.” Now is the time for all good people to come to the aid of our country.

“The Trump administration’s war on the environment, accelerated with the president’s executive orders to dismantle various environmental protections, is a product of the administration's larger war on science, a manifestation of Trump’s unrelenting assault on the truth.” Now is the time for all good people to come to the aid of our country.

“The warning lights have flashed as bright as ever. Trump ramped up the volume of his authoritarian rhetoric.” Now is the time for all good people to come to the aid of our country. “If Trump loses in 2020, will he respect the results of the election?” Trump “floated the idea of extending his constitutionally limited time in office, complaining that two years of his first White House term were ‘stollen.”  

Now is the time for all good people to come to the aid of our country. Now. Not later.
