The Resistance

The Democrats and their media allies were so shocked at Donald Trump’s Presidential victory, and remain so, that their pattern of contempt, denial, protests, marches, attacks, obstruction and panic has developed its own name – ‘The Resistance‘.

‘The Resistance‘ is committed to do whatever it can to delay, distract, and defeat every move the Trump Administration tries to make. Certainly not the definition of unity, debate of the issues or compromise.

This plan began immediately after Mr. Trump’s November 8th election and continues with growing momentum on the far left, but, not with mainstream Democrats, with dubious benefit, and, possibly, no broadbased national support.

Here is the running list of actions from ‘The Resistance‘.

• Shock & Sadness! Election night reaction from the media to Trump’s victory. They had predicted and invested in the election of Hillary Clinton as the 1st woman President.
• Protests/Riots. Protests against Donald Trump begin nightly in cities throughout the country on November 9th the day following the election.

• Support for protests. Democrats, Democrat legislators and media operatives cover ad nauseum, justify and cheer Trump election protestors.
• #AssassinateTrump. The outrage over Trump’s election as the next president of the United States has triggered a swarm of assassination threats on Twitter.
• Recount. Green Party candidate demands 3 state recounts and pays for them through supposed Green Party donations specifically for the recall.
• Transition. Obama promised a smooth professional executive transition in public only to inhibit same through action and inaction of bureaucrats.
• ‘Fake News’. Trump and his allies supposedly used fake news stories about Hillary Clinton to mislead voters.
• Electors. Democrats and their supporters request, assault & threaten State Electoral College Electors to change their vote from Trump.
• Executive Orders. President Obama issued executive orders & new regulations to establish firewalls designed to distract the new president upon arrival, having to address the 11th hour orders before getting started with his agenda.
• Russians did it. The left began and continue to push the narrative that the Russians hacked the election to get Trump to win.
• Picking fights. President Obama continued his plan to pick fights by imposing sanctions on Russia for supposed computer hacking during the election, forcing Vladimir Putin to say that Russia will consider counter measures. This follows the President’s cheap parting shot at Prime Minister Netanyahu of Israel.
• Trump derangement. Trump is not fit to be President and should be disallowed to be inaugurated via the 25th amendment.
• Loss of Hope! Michelle Obama tells Oprah this is what the loss of hope feels like.

• “Grab Your Wallet”. Left sets up website to boycott companies of Donald Trump. Nordstrom will stop selling Ivanka Trump’s name-branded line of clothing and shoes after a weeks long campaign by activist group known as “Grab Your Wallet”.
• Debunked. Frequently used term by media to distract from major points made by Trump officials. See Kellyanne Conway use of “Bowling Green Massacre” vs “Bowling Green Terrorists“.

Dr. Gupta has had a daily healthcare minute, A Better Life, on many radio stations around the country for several years now. Usually an interesting and thought provoking healthcare related topic, in 2017 he has turned his program subtly to politics. Recent subjects have included how to handle a narcissist (I wonder who he is talking about?), sexism harms men’s mental health ( again, any suspects?) and teaching kids to spot ‘fake news’ (topical).

• ‘Deep Green’. You have seen references to the “Deep State”, there another group, ‘Deep Green’, made up of scientists, media types, and activists hired as bureaucrats during the Obama years. Their livelihoods depend on the climate gray train that sucks billions from the federal budget. The Public Employees for Environmental Responsibility is a group of government employees resisting the Trump agenda. A leader from this group has publicly said, “We will resist. We will resist in whatever way, shape or form that we can.“
  
• Unhinged. Assaults on the White House grounds continue at a somewhat regular pace. A driver near the Capitol rammed her car into police cruisers. The incident near the Capitol comes on the heels of multiple recent cases of people jumping the fence at the White House.On Sunday (3/26), a 38-year-old woman who had tried to jump a White House security fence last week, scaled a fence near the Treasury Building. Secret Service agents arrested her around 2:15 a.m.Earlier this month, a suspect named Jonathan Tuan Tran allegedly scaled two fences and a security gate to get on the White House grounds before he was arrested.
