    So where was all this resistance during the election?

    Where was all this activism when democracy hung in the balance?

    Why did it take until the dictator was already in power for people to do anything about it?

      Blue States overwhelmingly voted for Harris.

      It was PA, Michigan, Arizona and Georgia where the Presidency was lost. But California and New York will solidly resist Trump, much as free states resisted slavery centuries ago.


      Don’t knock out history here. Sanctuary states/cities, free states, etc. etc. have a huge cultural impact and the states people WILL rally to the call. As long as we frame it correctly

      I’ve got my Harriet Tubman underground railroad stop and the history all part of my State Public education, and I know all my fellow state citizens also got that education. We know the drill.
