All of the above would be considered moderate positions in any other advanced democracy, and they should be considered moderate positions in ours.

And how do you do that? He has over 39 million devout followers. Serious question. You cannot beat him with Progressivism. He owns that in their minds. Fall in line and stop fascism now.

Those who support Trump are going to support him no matter what we say, even if he goes to jail. If we really want to defeat fascism, we need to offer people something much better - that IS the way to get in line to stop fascism. We need to make the promises of democracy more attractive.

I think coming up with a plan for mass, affordable housing would help. Because it's a huge problem in the USA and nobody's talking about it. I'd really like to see this addressed... What are your thoughts on the issue?
