    I believe you, but it’s too late. We elected a mad man -twice, and have never once followed through with any sorta legal action, punishment, or repercussions for his sly/illegal behavior. What can we do now except hope to vote against his party/interest in 2 years and continue to write letters to congressmen (who don’t read them).

      There are plenty of political actions one can take beyond voting and there is absolutely not time to wait 2 years to address these things. Protest, join orgs fighting this, call your representatives, do anything you can think of.

      It’s never too late. Remember, whatever democratic protections we have today were fought and clawed from the rulers of the past by people like us. Worst case scenario we have a repeat of that situation but they never win in the long run. The human spirit and desire for freedom can never be permanently defeated.
