What's a productive organizing thing we can do this winter if Trump is re-elected?

I guess we should work backwards from how we’d have wanted to help the people in countries where democracy collapsed. What could people in Chile or Italy or Germany have learned and done to help each other when they knew it was done?

Losing an election is not democracy collapsing, though. People are too eager to turn the dial to 10

I’m turning the dial to a strong 8. If Trump gets another another Justice or two and a fully packed court system? There simply won’t be another free and fair federal election. We should make realistic plans to care for each other through a decade of authoritarian rule.

Why wouldn't there be, though? If you're winning the free and fair elections there's not much reason to rig them

This isn’t remotely a free and fair election. If they manage to pull out a “win” they’ll have proven that there are no consequences for rigging it. And Trump will end up with 7-8 Justices who agree.

Of course it's a free and fair election.
