The US doesn’t have a “left.” This is encouraging, but let’s not get silly.

Citizens:

Welp, I went to a parade. I’ve done all I can.

They don’t need tricks. They’ll just do it. And the armed-to-the-teeth populace will do nothing.

Why wouldn’t he? It’s not like Americans are going to do anything about it.

American doctors should go on strike.

The USA is exactly where the rest of us told you you were headed for decades.

Not only are you not doing enough, you’re self-satisfied about it.

Anyone struggling to survive has even less of an excuse than those who are living comfortably.

The No Kings protests were the largest in US history so that should count for something.
