A DEMOCRATIC PRESIDENCY & CONGRESS would END REPUBLICAN LEGISLATIVE ROAD BLOCK, SLOW GLOBAL WARMING, and PROVIDE an ECONOMY for the 99+%.
It is our BEST CHANCE to ENSURE a FUTURE for GENERATIONS TO COME.
Trump will continue, at every turn, to demonstrate his
ignorance, leadership incompetence and threat to the safety of Americans and
the world.
Likewise,
the uncritical support by the Republican Party Leadership, especially House
Speaker Ryan (the spokesman for legislative gridlock on behalf of economic
interests of the very wealthy), also legitimates the anger/hatred and pervasive
bigotry and dehumanization consistently demonstrated by many Trump supporters.
Trump’s assertions that Obama and Clinton are “founders” of
ISIS illustrate Trump’s use of deliberate distortion and misstatement that both
misleads his followers and provides extraordinary recruiting propaganda for
ISIS.
The continued silent support of the Republican leadership reinforces the
acceptability of Trump remarks that increase the risk to Americans (and all
that might oppose the ultra-violent extremists) of ISIS and other violent
anti-American groups AND THEIR INDIVIDUAL SUPPORTERS on the battlefields and on
all the “soft” targets everywhere: schools, entertainment events and, indeed, ANY
PUBLIC GATHERINGS!Yes, Trump’s defeat is obviously essential BUT IT IS NOT ENOUGH!
First and foremost, AFTER YEARS of THE COAL, OIL and GAS INDUSTRIES "buying" the Republican Party, we URGENTLY need a CONGRESS with SUFFICIENT DEMOCRATIC MAJORITIES TO PASS LEGISLATION TO SLOW GLOBAL WARMING.
We also need a DEMOCRATIC CONGRESS TO ROLLBACK THE DECADES LONG REPUBLICAN ATTACK UPON THE QUALITY OF LIFE – economic, health, educational & employment opportunities… - FOR THE 99+%.
The MOST IMPORTANT WORK you can do IS HELP WIN A DEMOCRATIC MAJORITY IN THE HOUSE!
The HOUSE is the BULWORK that the REPUBLICANS HAVE CONSTRUCTED TO PROTECT THE VERY WEALTHY AND THEIR ECONOMIC CONTROL OVER OUR LIVES!
The GOP has:
- redrawn House districts to disadvantage Democratic candidates
- utilized unlimited “dark money” support from extremely wealthy individuals and corporations
- encouraged the creation of State laws to limit or discourage likely Democratic voters
