2. If 'orangeflu' refers to a general strike, I'm all for it!!!!
It may only make make make the few remaining actual journalists in this country stand up and take notice; but, it's worth trying
I hereby place LongTomH in charge of transportation.

3. I agree with you
and will look carefully at your proposed actions. Currently I'm interested in supporting the 1 million woman march on January 21st but feel it isn't enough.
Will general strikes possibly do anything constructive? Perhaps if enough put their energy into it. Donald Trump as our "leader" is unacceptable.

20. Thank you for your constructive suggestions.
I couldn't agree more that Human Rights Watch and Planned Parenthood constitute real, constructive campaigns that are eminently worthy of our donations.
I do not, however, think that extremely well-grounded concerns about Trump's pseudo-fascism -- which could easily lead to the establishment of an American pseudo-fascist police state -- can be adequately addressed or dismissed by noting, however accurately, that we've previously had jackasses and clowns for presidents.......
I deduct 10 points for grammar error, an unecessary run-on-sentence. Plus an additional 5 points for pandering in a failed effort to shake out some extra DUmmy cred. Verdict: Too much overreach, our finding... guilty - DUmmy mole.
