I'm a foreigner with an opinion. I talk to American friends every few days. I have some idea of what you're up against and I recognize it's not easy to do anything to slow this down or stop it. Trump's threatening my country and so are our own right-wing politicians, and I'm aware we all face similar difficulties: it's not easy to know what to do, and not easy to organize it even when you have an idea. But I can see it will take something unusual in the USA, not just waiting for an election.
Saying you're sitting and watching was unfair of me. Just an expression of frustration watching what they're doing to your country and threatening to do to ours.
Take your frustration and multiply it many times, then many times more. That's what any reasonable person who lives in the U.S. is feeling right now. Something will give, sooner rather than later.
equally, please don’t imply that you understand global frustration at the US right now
We are doing things. An important judge race in WI went our way. Couple of FL congress races were won by republicans by a lot less then expected. In MN we had 25000 people turn out. There are tons of cases working through the courts.
About all can be done at the moment is file law suits, try to shift public opinion enough so Republican congessman start getting nervous, win elections as come up.
Which involves critizing the US in every single comment and post you make.
This is what you do with your life.
