I mean why are you screaming at the government while you refuse to take available action yourself that would completely remedy the situation. That's like continuing to leave your keys in your unlocked car in front of your house and then complaining to the mayor about auto theft.

People have lost their minds, by supporting Luigi you KNOW you are encouraging other young people to ruin their lives.

The library, just be around people as a first step.

We have non profit insurance companies you can choose instead, you can just quit supporting bad companies with your wallet or job instead of waiting for magical politics.

I would expect that they just go out and get non-profit health insurance, people have complained about insurance companies for a long time. If people don't care to be responsible with such a serious purchase(or job choice(you're taking a job with effectively no health insurance if they have bad insurance)) why should they be allowed to resort to murder when it doesn't work out well for them? How does everyone overnight know some insurance companies are terrible, yet no one had been maneuvering from beneath said companies prior to the murder? Why wasn't there protests and boycotts.

No, the military can only deploy a small number of forces without congressional approval FIRST. And States have their own armies.

All great reasons to contact your republican representatives, and arguments to campaign on against republicans, not to catastrophize though. Say we go even just 2 years to midterms, and you all are screaming "end of democracy, constitutional crisis", we get a legal election, democrats gain some seats and all of a sudden your crying wolf is exposed and subsequently everyone is exhausted and unplugged from politics and no longer listen to leftists scream into the void. This is a republican trap, no different than culture war noise, it get's people to tune out of politics, if you stay level headed republicans will look worse and worse and we will get rid of the cockroaches once and for all. We can use trumps antics to our advantage, he will cause a blue wave if we don't obfuscate the situation with emotional reactivity.

That's for Congress to decide with impeachment, or the voters with elections. Congress has decided he has not done anything wrong.

Americans elected a Republican Congress, SCOTUS is Republican, what fourth branch are you referring to for "seperation of powers"? They cannot block appointments, that's a lie going around. Trump could still just ignore those, with a Republican congress, it wouldn't matter.

To, overturn the will of the people? Besides that even, this is such a vague answer, do you have any action idea at all?
-
Trump himself is "halting everything" and ending "business as usual". He's shutting down his own branch of government, he'll be able to do nothing, he is already doing this to himself. Democrats cannot block cabinet picks and they normally filibuster against republican bills already.
-
That's a cartoonish view of Americans, they're not that fucked up.
-
What "offense" should they do? They just lost the election, they were voted out of congress and the presidency, this is what the people voted for, you want democrats to deny the will of the people?
-
That all would mean nothing, it's up to the states and congress. That would be no different than Ronald McDonald declaring it.
-
Why don't you progressives ever ask what Jill Stein or Claudia De LA Cruz is going to do about Trump? Democrats were voted out of all power, Jill Stein has as much power.

I suggest just being open to dating if you come across a woman you're interested in. If you can find semi-social activities you like to do, you can potentially find a great girl or great friends that might have a great girl in their social circle. Great relationships can energize and empower you.

He's embarrassed by his poor reputation as President so he is going full throttle with common Republican strategy talking points, he wants to have a good legacy, but he's a moron.... -
When you're confident that you and the woman can commit to being together for the rest of your lives, you both know what you want, and you work well together.

I agree with contacting your representatives, especially Republican ones. Trump's actions definitely require that, try to not sound unhinged in your communication though, "pardoning jan 6ers is very bad for the rule of law, congress should be who decides spending, defying the law is impeachable, please impeach this criminal now". And definitely prepare for a recession. Hundreds of millions in stock were sold off this week by insiders across most industries....

Drawing comparisons with the rise of WW2 fascism is historical nescience. Germany only became a democracy the decade before Hitler, Italy was a monarchy prior to Mussolini, they were more familiar with authoritarianism than the foreign new age concept of liberalism.
