Summary
Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) is organizing grassroots events to oppose Trumpās policies, arguing that āTrumpism does not believe in democracy.ā
In an op-ed, Sanders criticized Trumpās ties to Elon Musk, federal budget cuts, and media influence, warning of authoritarianism.
He cited Trumpās recent post likening himself to Napoleon and accused him of disregarding the rule of law.
The White House dismissed Sandersā concerns, accusing Democrats of authoritarian tactics.
How dare I hold our leaders to account for doing nothing for decades and allowing the country to fall to fascism?
I canāt fucking stand liberals.
You can hold leaders to account, and you should - thereās plenty to hold them to account for - but that still doesnāt answer the question of what is to be done in this present moment right now.
You want a general strike, but you have no idea who is going to organize one, or how theyāre going to do it, because youād rather feel justified in your outrage over grudges of the past than actually see anything useful done.
Youāre more interested in feeling righteous than you are in succeeding, and thatās going to get you exactly nowhere.
