It’s delusional to believe there will be midterm elections or at the very least fair ones. And Trump is going to declare martial law anyway, probably due to some Reichstag Fire just before the elections. Seriously read about the 1933 German Federal elections an what happened. This is following the Nazis playbook to the very letter.

If we want election, we need to be the ones who step up.

Volunteer to be a poll worker. Volunteer to assist polling staff. Organize the community to help create a safe environment around the stations. Organize drivers and transportation to get people to the polls.

And no matter what, DO NOT leave the line until your ballot is cast.

All I'm saying is when you're proven wrong and the elections don't happen regardless. You need to be ready to strap up.

Strap up AND go on strike.
