The Resistance to a New Trump Administration Has Already Started

Opponents of Donald J. Trump are drafting potential lawsuits in case he is elected in November and carries out mass deportations, as he has vowed. One group has hired a new auditor to withstand any attempt by a second Trump administration to unleash the Internal Revenue Service against them. Democratic-run state governments are even stockpiling abortion medication.

A sprawling network of Democratic officials, progressive activists, watchdog groups and ex-Republicans has been taking extraordinary steps to prepare for a potential second Trump presidency, drawn together by the fear that Mr. Trump’s return to power would pose a grave threat not just to their agenda but to American democracy itself.

“Trump has made clear that he’ll disregard the law and test the limits of our system,” said Joanna Lydgate, the chief executive of States United Democracy Center, a nonpartisan democracy watchdog organization that works with state officials in both parties. “What we’re staring down is extremely dark.”

While the Supreme Court on Thursday rejected an attempt to nullify federal approval of the abortion pill mifepristone, liberals fear a new Trump administration could rescind the approval or use a 19th-century morality law to criminalize sending it across state lines.

Another NYeT story -- not how the abortionists and eugenicide are going to win the election for the Democrats -- but yet another in a thick string of bleats that Trump's re-election is a foregone conclusion (to all but Freeptards); and that the only thing left for Libtards to do is fret and crank out process articles detailing how badly they failed to get anything done during The Steal, and how now some genociders have become abortion "preppers" by hoarding RU-486 in preparation for TrumpII.

Oh, the palpable irony. The sweetest Schadenfreude.

Put this in your document pipe and smoke it, Jackleg Smith:

Yawn...the drama queens never stop

Is Lydgate’s group funded by GatesOfHell or by Sore-Ass, by any chance?

[navymom1]

We aren’t any longer. Franklin isn’t turning over in his grave. He’s wondering why they even bothered.

Joanna is the lesbian sexual partner (styled as "wife") of the liberal nut female Gov. of Taxachusetts, even though the Gov. styles herself "Catholic" and same-sex marriages are forbidden in Catholicism. (Context.)

WHEN he wins.

14th and 19th American hell. Good intentions gone bad.

[right way right]

We the people don’t like “your” democracy!

It’s communism, centralized oppression, a boot on the neck of real progress!

We want representation , not oppression!

NYT pricks!

Looks like a bunch of people that belong in jail, at a minimum. They certainly aren't fellow Americans.
